These Lectures were delivered at the Harveian Society, at the end of 1876, and appeared in the Lancet in the following year. At the repeated request of friends I have been induced to reprint them in a separate form, with some emendations and additions. The object I had in view was to trace as concisely as possible the progress made of late years in the investigation of venereal disease, to point out what may be considered to be the generally accepted views of the profession at the present time, as well as to indicate the principal points of divergence. With the exception of those who have specially studied the subject there are few who have had time or patience to wade through the voluminous literature of the last twenty or thirty years, and it appears to me there is still much uncertainty in the minds of practitioners generally on various important points.
