Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sajous´s Analytical Cyclopaedia of Practical Medicine, Vol. 5 In presenting the fifth volume to the profession the editor cannot but express the hope that it will merit the kind appreciation bestowed upon its predecessors, not only by the patrons of the work, but also by the medical press. It has proved to be the most arduous one to prepare of the entire series, involving, as it does, almost every specialty - otology, laryngology, ophthalmology, neurology, pediatrics, obstetrics, therapeutics, etc. - besides the sections usually classed under general medicine and surgery. The continued assistance of the members of the associate staff has greatly facilitated the labors of the central department; the indebtedness involved is gratefully acknowledged. Death has claimed, since the publication of the fourth volume, two members of the associate staff: Dr. Norman Kerr, of London, and Dr. J. E. Graham, of Toronto. Dr. Kerr has been an associate editor since 1893, and his able articles upon inebriety, morphinism, and kindred disorders will doubtless be remembered by many of our readers, owing to the erudition displayed in them, the refined language used, and the elevated motives discernible in every line. The paper on "Morphinism" published in this volume is his last contribution to medical literature. Though written by the editor, it is elaborated in Dr. Kerr´s own words, and portrays his thoughts; while his signature bears witness to a careful revision - accomplished not long before he departed this life. The special field to which Dr. Kerr devoted his labors has lost its most brilliant exponent; the profession at large one of its most faithful and honest workers. Dr. Graham had been a member of the staff about two years. His article upon "Cholelithiasis" - probably the finest encyclopædic review of the subject extant - typifies all his labors, and, in particular, two traits which dominated his entire career: i.e., thoroughness and sincerity of purpose. His last contribution to medical literature will appear in the sixth volume of this work: the article on "Typhoid Fever." It fully sustains his reputation as one of Canada´s most distinguished clinicians, and but accentuates the great loss which his untimely death has imposed upon the entire profession. Two kindred subjects have been treated in a manner differing somewhat from the usual, namely: the "Disorders of Pregnancy," by Dr. Currier, of New York, and "Abnormal Parturition," by Drs. Grandin and Marx, of the same city. Instead of repeating text with which a physician´s shelves are usually fully supplied, - textbook matter, - these articles aim to give the newer aspects of these questions and the tendency of progressive thought. Among the other articles presented which call for especial notice are "Pleurisy," by Dr. Alexander McPhedran, of Toronto; "Catarrhal Pneumonia," by Dr. Solomon Solis-Cohen, of Philadelphia; "Lobar Pneumonia," by Dr. Thomas G. Ashton, of the same city; and "Rheumatism," by Dr. Levison, of Copenhagen. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
