A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This volume is another milestone on the highway of progress in Medicine. It maite another advance in the march toward prevention and control of disease. The necessity for the use of tests of function, in attaining accuracy and completeness in the diagnosis of many diseases, and in determining the degree or the extent of physiological disorder, is obvious. The reliability of many of the available tests of function has been firmly and convincingly established. The futility of some of the proposed methods for this purpose has likewise been clearly indicated. Separation of the wheat from the chaff is in progress in this field as in every other in Medicine. The promise of development in the scope and proficiency of the methodology of function-testing appears to be limited only by the amount and character of the clinical observation and laboratory research this general means of study and diagnosis will attract and receive. An obstacle in the way of rapidity of extension in the use and evaluation of many of the reliable functional tests, and of the development and improvement of such methods, is the wide dispersion of their descriptions throughout the great mass of original medical literature, with the consequent mechanical difficulty imposed on many laboratory workers and practitioners of thus studying and understanding these methods. This book, one of the first of its kind, represents an earnest and successful attempt to assemble, and render easily accessible, full and accurate descriptions of all the published procedures of actual or presumed value in functional diagnosis, and to present these descriptions in a classified arrangement, with indications of the relative values of the tests in each group, that will render selection and use of methods convenient and satisfactory under all conditions involving their application.

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.
