Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Papers and Addresses On the eighth of last April Dr. Welch attained his seventieth birthday. To many of his friends it seemed that such an occasion ought not to pass without some manifestation of affection and admiration on the part of the medical profession of America to one who has long stood as its leader, and that a worthy expression would be the preservation in suitable form of the chief contributions from his pen. Dr. Welch´s writings are scattered through a great variety of publications, many of which are more or less inaccessible. It was accordingly decided to bring together and to publish the more important of his numerous papers and addresses of the past forty-two years, publications which reveal the great part he has played in the development of medical science and medical education. With the permission of Dr. Welch, the editor, in his student days, had collected these papers and addresses with a view to republication. When it became evident that the work would be interrupted by the war the appended Bibliography was published. On his return from France after the Armistice the editor was invited by the Publication Committee to undertake, under its supervision, the editing of these volumes. The collected material covers a period during which there have been great advances in medicine, especially through the impetus following the development of cellular pathology, the discovery and study of pathogenic microorganisms, and the more widespread adoption of experimental methods. It will be noted that a number of the papers, and especially addresses and discussions, are from stenographic reports. Some of these have been revised and given appropriate titles, but no attempt has been made in these or other articles to alter the subject matter so as to bring it up to the later state of knowledge.
