SPECIMEN OP ILLUSTRATIONS. 



This valuable work is a treatise on Diseases of the Bones, embracing their 

 structural changes as affected by disease, their clinical history and treatment, in- 

 eluding also an account of the various tumors which grow in or upon them. 

 None of the injuries of bone are included in its scope, and no joint diseases, ex- 

 cepting where the condition of the bone is a prime factor in the problem of 

 disease. As the work of an eminent surgeon of large and varied experience, it 

 may be regarded as the best on the subject, and a valuable contribution to medi- 

 cal literature. 



"The book which I now offer to my professional brethren contains the substance of 

 the lectures which I have delivered during the past twelve years at the college. ... I 

 have followed the leadings of my own studies and observations, dwelling more on those 

 branches where I had seen and studied most, and perhaps too much neglecting others 

 where my own experience was more barren, and therefore to me less interesting. I have 

 endeavored, however, to make up the deficiencies of my own knowledge by the free use of 

 the materials scattered so richly through our periodical literature, which scattered 

 leaves it is the right and the duty of the systematic writer to collect and to embody in 

 any account he may offer of the state of a science at any given period." Extract from 

 Authors Preface.
