Excerpt from Practical Observations of Aural Surgery and the Nature and Treatment of Diseases of the Ear: With Illustrations IN offering an American edition of Mr. Wilde's work on Aural Surgery to the profession, it is confidently hoped that it will fill a void in our Medical literature which has long been felt, and which no work published in this country has ever been adequate to fill. No work has yet appeared in the English language, which has entered so extensively into the pathology and treatment of the Diseases of the Organ of Hearing, as that now offered to the pro fession; and it is to be earnestly hoped that the objects of the author - to lay down just principles for an accurate diagnosis of Diseases of the Ear; to rescue their treatment from empiricism, and found it upon the well-established laws of modern pathology, practical sur gery, and reasonable therapeutics - may be alike accomplished in the new world as in the old.
