Excerpt from Principles of Medicine: Comprising General Pathology and Therapeutics, and a Brief General View of Etiology, Nosology, Semeiology, Diagnosis, Prognosis and Hygienics I have now to express my regret that the incessant engagements of my practice have so long delayed the appearance of this edition. In fact, it might have been deferred much longer, if I had not secured the valuable assistance of my friend and former pupil, Dr. R. J. Mann, who has contributed several articles on recent investigations in Physiology and Animal Chemistry, and has taken great pains in revising the composition of the whole work. To my friend, Mr. George Gulliver, I am also indebted for looking over the chapters on Diseases of the Blood and In¿ammation, and for very important micro scopic contributions on these subjects. Free reference has been made to va rions recent authors on Physiology and Pathology, but I would especially mention the works of Dr. Carpenter, Mr. Paget and Professor Rokitansky, as sources from which I have derived much valuable information. It is right to mention that several of the early sheets of this work have been printed more than twelve months, which will account for the absence from them of reference to the most recent facts.
