Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Diseases of the Stomach The chief excuse for the existence of a book is its individuality. While it is true that the definitive features of a book are the individual views of the author, the great mass of a complete work on the diseases of the stomach must consist of the results of research gathered all along the course of medical history. A complete book on this subject for the use of students and physicians should contain what of knowledge there is of practical value in the past, what of truth there is in the literature of to-day, and what of information the author may have to contribute. An outline of the evolution of our knowledge of the diseases of the stomach would be a just tribute to the original workers of the past. Possibly narrow and individual conceptions should be rounded with a critical estimate and statement of the opinions of living authorities. But it is our chief endeavor to make this book simple, clear, practical, and complete in useful information. We have consequently decided to have as little as possible to do with history, to omit unnecessary references to literature, and to rearrange the best that others have said and done in unison with what we ourselves have learned during years of special study and practice. The classification of the diseases of the stomach should be simple and practical, and embody the data of physiology and pathology. It has become the custom, as exemplified in many text-books, to describe as distinct diseases what are in reality only the functional signs of disease or what are merely inconstant accompaniments. Another common error, in our opinion, is the mistaking of a condition for a disease. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
