Excerpt from A System of Surgery, Vol. 1 of 2: Pathological, Diagnostic, Therapeutic, and Operative

The Object Of this work, as set forth in the first edition, issued in 1859, is to furnish a systematic and comprehensive treatise On the art and science Of surgery, considered in the broadest sense; one that shall serve the prac titioner as a faithful and available guide in his daily routine Of duty. My aim has been to embrace the whole domain Of surgery, and to allot to every subject its legitimate claim to notice in the great family of external diseases and accidents. If a larger space than is customary has been devoted to the consideration Of inflammation and its results, or the great principles Of sur gery, it is because of the conviction, grounded upon long and close Observa tion, that there are no subjects so little understood by the general practitioner. Special attention has also been bestowed upon the discrimination Of diseases; and an elaborate chapter has been introduced on general diagnosis.
