Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Control of a Scourge: Or How Cancer Is Curable Some of the discoveries in medicine have been so striking in their results as to win favour among the profession and the public at a bound. In this category, for instance, may be named the two great triumphs of the last century. I allude to the introduction into surgical practice of anæsthesia and asepsis. It did not take long for the unfortunate subject of a surgical operation to realise the transcendental benefits he derived from the abolition of the tortures which such a proceeding entailed upon him; nor did it require any effort on the part of the surgeon to convince him of the advantages resulting therefrom. Again, in the case of the introduction of asepsis, although the patient could not be expected to appreciate, and never will appreciate to the full, its importance to him, the profession was not slow to recognise the magnitude of the revolution it meant in surgery, and the benefits it was destined to confer on suffering humanity.
