Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Diseases of the Chest, Vol. 1 The volume which is now again given to the world, with some important additions, has been for many years out of print. Dr. Stokes was unwilling in advanced life to republish this work of his prime without alterations which would have involved, in fact, rewriting. The treatise was at its time as complete as it was masterly. On his death, and in compliance with his request, Dr. Hudson, the valued friend of many years, undertook to prepare, as an historical landmark in medicine, a reprint with additions which Dr. Stokes had himself prepared and put in Dr. Hudson´s hands. Dr. Hudson made me promise that if he edited the book, I would write a brief memoir of our common friend as a prefix to the work. Death has now removed Dr. Hudson also, and what Io write cannot, alas! be revised by him. Had I foreseen this, I probably should not have undertaken the difficult duty. As it is, the few pages that follow are poor offerings placed on tho grave of a beloved teacher, at the dying request of his comrade, who fell while erecting a monument to his friend. For the love of both would that my offering were more worthy. I pray the members of the New Sydenham Society to accept the tribute, such as it is, not for the deed but for the will.
