Excerpt from Principles and Practice of Physical Diagnosis
This edition, unlike the second printing, has been revised as to text and illustration, without departing from the original plan and scope of the book, which deals with the principles of physical diagnosis and their practical application to the study of thoracic and abdominal diseases. New matter has been incorporated, chiefly in connection with the subjects of sphygmomanometry, nodal rhythm, pleurisy, and lobar atelectasis. A number of new illustrations have been added, and many of the old figures redrawn, the better to elucidate the subject matter.
Acknowledgment is herewith made to the numerous critics of the earlier edition, whose views have been greatly appreciated by the author in this endeavor to present a work helpful alike to novice and practitioner, and one deserving a reception as generous as that accorded its predecessor.
