Présentation de l'éditeur

Well, the way my friend was complimented on his taste was quite touching to behold. Nobody envied him. Nobody sneered at hiin. Nobody had an unkind or censorious word to say of him behind his back. This shows what a fine thing human nature is; especially after it has been improved upon by a medical education, a good deal of general practice, and a certain amount of acquaintance with the sick wards and the operating rooms of a large hospital. Then, again, we are all so charmed by the professional successes of our brethren, especially in everything that relates to surgery. If a man is prompt and skilful as an operator ;if he simplifies or improves upon old processes, or introduces new ones; if he exhibits nerve, promptitude, readiness, foresight, and swiftness and decision and discretion of action in critical and unprecedented emergencies, he is embarrassed by the congratulations and praises of every other surgeon in the city. Not one of them attempts to depreciate his skill, or detract from his merit. Not one is jealous of his success. Not one would dispute his title to both the solid pudding and the empty praise which accrue to him for his performance.
