DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A d104-Book of Special Pathological Anatomy Since the publication in 1884 of the first English edition of Ziegler's Special Pathological Anatomy, great advances have been made in our knowledge of its subject-matter. These have been duly embodied in the five successive German editions that have appeared in the meantime. The work has accordingly been so altered and enlarged that in preparing a third English edition we have had entirely to rewrite the text, and to recast the bibliographical and other supplementary portions. The number of pathological papers and monographs to which reference might fitly be made is now so great that only the more recent and important can be dealt with. But the student of historical tastes will find ample references to the earlier literature in the previous English editions; and by omitting them in this much valuable space has been gained. The second volume, containing the sections on the alimentary tract with the liver and pancreas, the respiratory and genitourinary systems, the eye, and the ear, is already in the press and will shortly be published. We hope to follow it with a new version of the part on General Pathological Anatomy, prepared with the author's sanction and assistance from the latest German edition. We desire here to record our thanks to Dr W. G. Spiller, of Philadelphia, for his help in preparing the translation of Sections VI and VII.
