Excerpt from Catechism of the Principles of Veterinary Surgery Nobody can diagnose, treat and prognose a surgical case intelligently unless thoroughly acquainted with the scientific principles involved in any particular case. The student is obliged to gain his knowledge of the various surgical "ologies" by lectures, and after all by the perusal and study of works written for the human practitioner. The former is insufficient and the latter obviously wrong. The principles applicable to human surgery and those of veterinary surgery, while in a great many instances closely related, nevertheless differ materially. For instance, asepsis, a condition sine qua non to the human surgeon, as a rule exists in veterinary surgery only in theory, although lately some of the leading surgeons in human surgery lean strongly toward antisepsis. In human surgery, periostitis plays an unimportant role, while it is of vital importance to the equine practitioner. Notice the difference in the prognosis and treatment of fractures. How many human surgeons apply the firing iron and blisters? This work is purely for the veterinarian. As a former teacher of veterinary students, I am fairly conversant with their needs. It has been my most earnest desire and effort to supply a work which, while scientific and modern, is free from matters of doubtful interest to the American student.

Excerpt from A d104-Book Principles the Practice: Veterinary Medicine The need of an up-to-date, scientific text designed for student use has been long felt by teachers of the internal diseases of animals. The author has personally experienced this need as a teacher of veterinary students for over twenty years. The few books available on the subject are either obsolete or so filled with errors that they mislead rather than instruct. Some of the best of them are translations from the German and French. In too many instances the translators have been neither veterinarians nor teachers of veterinary medicine, and too few of them linguists. Furthermore, the books in this field have not been designed for undergraduate students; they are bulky, comprehensive works of reference of little pedagogic value; all of them have been superseded by newer editions in the original tongue. Although this volume is designed primarily for the student, it will be found valuable to the practitioner, investigator or intelligent stockman who may have need of knowledge of the fundamental principles of the practice of veterinary medicine presented in concise, clear-cut and at the same time not too dogmatic form. While the author has many to thank for assistance in preparing this volume, among his fellow teachers, investigators and practitioners, he is especially indebted to Professor D. H. Udall, of the New York State Veterinary College, Cornell University, who kindly read the manuscript and offered many valuable suggestions from his rich experience, practically all of which have been incorporated in the book. Messrs. Lea & Febiger are also thanked for their patience, courtesy and efficient service in making the edition mechanically good.
