A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The work herewith presented to theE nglish speaking medical public occupies a unique position, and therefore needs no apology. It treats of subjects that have been left untouched by the few short and imperfect works on surgical emergencies that have appeared, and which, in general treatises on the surgical art, are so encumbered by the mass of other matter that they are inaccessible. Not a small portion of the book is devoted to subjects which can scarcely be classed as surgical emergencies, but which may be included in the term Life-saving Operations. These matters are extremely important to the practitioner who has not the time to wade through ponderous tomes and innumerable journals, and they are dealt with in a precise, sententious and masterly manner. Many of them are so recent in their origin, that they have not as yet even been incorporated in the text-books. Thanks are due toD r. Ferd. C. Valentine of this city, for his invaluable assistance in the preparation of the manuscript. FREDERICK A. LYONS. 244 West Forty-ninth St., New York.
