Excerpt from The Practice of Medicine, Vol. 1 of 2 A sixth Edition of the Practice of Medicine having been demanded, all the time which could be spared from other onerous duties during the last two years has been devoted to rendering it more worthy of the great encouragement hitherto bestowed upon it. The fact of the book having been out of print for several months has been a subject of considerable regret, though it is hoped that the Reader will now reap the benefit of the unavoidable delay which has taken place in preparing the re-issue. For inasmuch as our knowledge of diseases and their treatment has been steadily advancing since the publication of the last edition in July 1865, I have been exceedingly unwilling to allow these volumes to pass out of my hands until such new matter as was necessary had been added, and until every page had been carefully and deliberately conned over. In this way the work has become much enlarged. Nevertheless, the original plan has been adhered to, of making its pages the medium of as much practical information as possible. Especially have I aimed at adopting a style which should be terse, without appearing obscure, while the endeavour has also been made to give particular prominence to those points which will aid the practitioner in the discharge of his responsible duties at the bedside.
