Excerpt from The British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review, Vol. 53: Or Quarterly Journal of Practical Medicine and Surgery; January April, 1874
I. The Classification and Pathology of Diseases of the Skin.
Having in a previous number of the 'Review' (July, 1870), surveyed the progress recently made in acquaintance with the minute anatomy of cutaneous diseases - an advance, as was then found, almost entirely due to the younger members of the Vienna school - we now propose to consider the present state of knowledge as to the pathology and natural affinities of the same class of maladies.
There is no department of medicine which proves more clearly than dermatology the evil result of its study being made a specialty, and we have merely to glance through the list of classifications printed at the end of Dr. Meldon's book to obtain so many illustrations of the fact. The only two works on the subject of original character - that of Willan and that of Hebra - which are alike admirable for power of observation and sound judgment, are in their pathology entirely dependent on the doctrines current at the time in the schools of Edinburgh or of Vienna.
