Excerpt from Elements of Surgery The first edition Of the present Treatise was published at Edinburgh in 1831, some time prior to the author's removal to London. It was originally comprised in three volumes. A second impression, Of which this is a reprint, appeared at London in 1840, in a revised and improved form. The favourable reception which the publication has met with in this country, and the desire I have felt to introduce it into the school with which I am connected, as a text-book, have induced me to prepare it forthe American press with particular care. Among the additions, properly SO called, is an article on Strabismus, and another on Club-foot; two subjects, the former of which was entirely omitted in the English edition, and the latter discussed in a manner altogether incommensurate with the existing state Of our knowledge in regard to it. The notes are designed to serve as further illustrations of the text, or to supply deficiencies in relation to certain topics which have been passed lightly over by the author. They might have been extended to almost any number, and it would have afforded me no ordinary gratification, had it been consistent with the views and interests of my publishers, to present what might be considered as a tolerably fair outline of American surgery. For such an Object ample materials are extant, highly valuable in them selves, and eminently calculated, when they shall be properly embo died, to reflect credit upon the talents, enterprise, and dexterity of our surgeons. It need hardly be added, what is self-evident, that the editor Of a work is responsible to the public only SO far as his own labours are concerned. He adopts only in a general manner, without endorsing all, the views and opinions of his author. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Elements of Surgery, Vol. 1 of 2: For the Use of Students; With Plates Numerous circumstances combine to render neces sary an American Epitome of Practical Surgery; those members of the medical profession who, by talent and experience, are best qualified to compose it, are fully occupied by other duties, and indifferent to that species of reputation which might accrue from such a publicai tion; the labour has therefore, in the present instance, devolved upon one in many respects inadequate to the performance, and fully sensible of the imperfections of his work.

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Elements of Surgical Diagnosis I have thought it best to separate the diagnosis of injuries from that of diseases. While aware that this course is not in strict accordance with the ways of Nature, it has yet seemed to possess the advantage of greater simplicity, and I trust that it will not interfere with any usefulness the book might other wise have. I have great pleasure in acknowledging the able assistance I have received from my friend, Dr. Angel Money, who has kindly revised the proof-sheets, and made many valuable suggestions.
