Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Relations of Diseases of the Eye to General Diseases: Forming a Supplementary Volume to Every Manual and Text-Book of Practical Medicine and Ophthalmology In presenting this treatise of Professor Knies in an English dress, the editor simply fulfils the function of giving to a book whose quality is to a great degree unique, a larger field of usefulness. Especially in those parts which concern the nervous system is there much that is worthy of attentive study, and which is not to be found in any other treatise. Throughout the book the alliances between the eye and the rest of the body are so admirably traced that it will be hard to decide, upon whom the larger debt of obligation to the painstaking author will rest, whether upon the general physician or upon the ophthalmologist. The point of view is from the side of the general practitioner, who having in hand a particular case, say for example of tabes dorsalis, is put into possession of the various eye lesions liable to occur; whether these be present or absent he is prepared to understand the ocular phenomena. In fact, the book serves the valuable purpose of a cross index between the general field of medicine and an important specialty. On the other hand, the oculist finds his range of view enlarged and is made to realize in a more adequate degree, that local disease may depend upon and be the signal of a lesion of some remote organ or of a constitutional affection. He is made to appreciate the need of wide observation of symptoms, and is kept in touch with the pathology and therapeutics of medicine at large. The editor has added little to the author´s pages and has not taken upon himself the work of translation.
