Présentation de l'éditeur
The favorable reoeption given to my first series of Clinical Lectures has encouraged me to publish, now, another volume on an important class of diseases. In these, as in the former Lectures, mj aim has been to teach by examples; to inculcate cardinal points of diagnosis, treatment, and pathology by observations made at the bedside, and by illustrations drawn from suitable cases. For much of the materials out of which this volume has been formed, I am indebted to several of my former pupils, who, acting as my clinical clerks, and aiding in various ways in chemical and physiological inquiries, have kept the records of the cases which form the basis of the Lectures. Let me take this opportunity of remarking how important, and I may add, responsible an office in our great hospitals, whether metropolitan or provincial, is that of a clinical derk. It is not less so as regards the interests of the individual who holds the office, than with reference to the good of the patients, and to the advancement of medical science. No Clinic can be properly conducted without the active cooperation of inte Uigent and industrious clinical clerks. Nor can any better advice be given to a young man, preparing for the medical profession, than that he should act in this capacity in the wards of a general hospital, even although it may demand a very large portion of his time. An experience of nearly twenty years as a clinical teacher, enables me to expiess my opinion that, in our London hospitals and schools, sufficient encouragement is not given to students to devote themselves to this best mode of gaining practical knowledge.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
