Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections From the Works of the Late J. Warburton Begbie: Edited by D. Duckworth This volume is the result of a proposal which I made last year to my colleagues on the Council of the New Sydenham Society, and which they, were so good as to accept. It seemed desirable that the writings by which Dr. Warburton Begbie was so well known in his day should be collected and placed within easy reach of the Profession. I accordingly offered to select from his numerous contributions to medical literature such of his essays as seemed to me best to represent his clinical powers and to illustrate the influence he exerted upon his contemporaries. It may be that this intention was in our author´s own mind, to be carried out at some future time. He may have contemplated producing, in place of an opus magnum, such a collection of his fragmentary writings as was formed, in his later years, by his eminent father. Acting, then, as far as possible in accordance with this idea, I have made the attempt to carry out what could only have been properly achieved by the author himself. To accomplish this purpose has been for me most truly a labour of love. The lines on which Warburton Begbie worked so successfully were just those which were traversed in my own impressionable student days by the best minds in Medicine, and the level of excellence reached in the essays in this volume may fairly be taken to represent that which had been attained in the Edinburgh School some twenty years since.
