Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Medical Diseases of Infancy and Childhood: With Points on the Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene Peculiar to the Developing Period It was not without misgivings that the author acceded to the request of the J. B. Lippincott Company to prepare a work limited to six hundred pages comprising all the medical diseases of infancy and childhood. For want of space ease records and temperature charts are omitted, while discussions and opinions upon mooted subjects are necessarily restricted. The reader´s indulgence is asked for the flavor of dogmatism, from which deductions drawn largely from personal experiences are rarely free. The need of a more thorough preparation for the study of clinical paediatrics than is afforded by a general knowledge of the Anatomy and Physiology of adult life is so evident that considerable space is devoted to these subjects with reference to the developing period. Part I is practically a revision of the author´s previously published Lessons on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene of Infancy and Childhood. The subject of Infant Feeding, always of paramount importance, is treated broadly in the hope of stimulating a genuine interest in principles rather than a blind following of dogmatic formulæ. The author desires to acknowledge the unfailing courtesy and patience of the Publishers and to return thanks to the following gentlemen for reading manuscript and for valuable suggestions: Dr. John Edwin Rhodes, diseases of the Respiratory System; Dr. Theodore Tieken, disorders of the Blood and Glands; Dr. G. W. Hall, diseases of the Nervous System; Dr. W. J. Butler, Heart Disease and Eruptive Fevers; Dr. J. W. Vanderslice, Infant Feeding; Dr. J. A. Patton, diseases of the Genito Urinary Tract; Dr. Cassius D. Wescott, for practically rewriting diseases of the Eye. To Drs. John Ridlon and Wallace Blanchard for illustrative cuts; Dr. F. W. Allin for reading page proof and arranging index; Hon. Wm. H. Collins for corrections in phraseology. He also acknowledges with thanks the privilege of reproducing from Johnson Symington´s "Anatomy of the Child" a few illustrations embodied in this work. Especial acknowledgment is due to Dr. Julia D. Merrill for valuable assistance and advice in every stage of the work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
