Excerpt from Diseases of the Joints
Surgery has now reached a stage of development in which every department presents itself from many points of view. It is, therefore, even when dealing with only a single branch, impossible within reasonable limits to be exhaustive, and in the following work I have been obliged to confine myself mainly to a description of the diagnosis and treatment of Diseases of the Joints. Pathology must always form the basis of Surgery; but Pathology has of late undergone such a rapid advance that it demands a special course of study in the Museum and Postmortem Room. It cannot be adequately set forth in such a treatise as the present, which is intended for the use of practitioners and students of Clinical Surgery. Most of the chapters, however, contain a brief reference to the pathology of the affections to which they relate.
