Excerpt from The Practical Medicine Series, Vol. 6
It is probable that all the editors of the various subdivisions of the "Year Book" feel that theirs is the most important section of the "Practical Medicine Series." Naturally the editor of the part devoted to Pharmacology and Therapeutics shares the opinion of his distinguished colleagues. Like the others he has been embarrassed by the enormous volume of material poured in upon him when the cessation of the war reopened the floodgates of European literature. It required the exercise of much care to select some and reject the rest of it. As a general principle, work of no practical therapeutic value has not been reviewed. Demonstrations of the worthlessness of certain new and little used remedies, important as these studies are to the pioneer in therapy, have generally been rejected owing to lack of space. Wherever the editor entertained grave doubts about the soundness of an author's conclusions, the article has been withheld instead of indulging in derogatory editorial comments, as might have been his privilege. Errors in selection have no doubt been made. For these the readers' indulgence is requested.
