Occasional Papers on Medical Subjects, 1855-1896 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Occasional Papers on Medical Subjects, 1855-1896

Tm; papers which have been brought together in this volume were written as opportunity occurred during the course of the last forty years. They touch upon many subjects, and offer a variety which should prevent their being uniformly uninteresting. To avoid needless repeti tion I have excluded for the most part those of which the chief matter has been incorporated in subsequent works. I have selected for republication some which purported to contain new observations, however slight, and others which had the object of presenting old conclusions for new con siderations. A few of the later papers were put together with the design of their ultimately finding place in a col lection such as this, while the last two have not before appeared in their present shape. The general system of arrangement has been chronological.
