Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Ultra Violet Rays in Modern Dermatology: Including the Evolution of Artificial Light Rays and Therapeutic Technique

The author will, therefore, give his experience in just that way, having had experience in the treatment of many cutaneous diseases, giving the rays full credit where they have been particularly efficacious, and as well reciting his deductions where the radiations have not been as successful as one might desire.

The author has no intention of being over enthusiastic in his deductions as to the value of ultra violet rays in the practice of dermatology, but will give his unbiased and candid Opinions just as he has been able to deduce them from his own personal experience.
