When the President and Council of the Faculty did me the honour of inviting me to deliver the present lectures, my first and greatest difficulty was to select, if possible, from the wide range of subjects at my command, one which might prove of interest to the greater number of my audience, rather than one which must of necessity appeal to comparatively fewer in other words, it seemed well to select a subject dealing with some surgical principle or system, rather than one so limited in its interest as would be the consideration of a special disease or group of diseases. A nother reason for the choice which I have made presented itself in the fact that the principles which underlie all modern wound-treatment were first recognised and put into practice by the then Professor of Surgery in our Uni Since these lectures were delivered they have been revised by Lord Lister, and he has, with much kindness, re-written some passages in the second lecture. These emendations I have accepted very gratefully, since they give to the views set forth the value of his authority and approval.
