Excerpt from Diseases of the Intestines: A Textbook for Practitioners and Students of Medicine
This treatise is a continuation of my work on "Diseases of the Stomach," the two together comprising the principal disorders of the digestive tract. In discussing the subject of the intestinal affections an effort has been made to follow the same lines laid down in my book on the stomach. The practical points regarding diagnosis and treatment are always placed in the foreground.
Although our knowledge of diseases of the intestines has not made such rapid progress as that of morbid conditions of the stomach, much has likewise been achieved in this field. Surgery has made many successful advances. The elucidation of the intimate relation existing between functional disturbances of the stomach and of the intestines also marks an important step forward, especially as to therapy.
While there are many excellent works on intestinal diseases by German authors, the more recent English literature contains no monographs on this important subject.
