Excerpt from The Transactions of the Medico-Chirurgical Society of Edinburgh, Vol. 7: Session 1887-88
The present Volume is the Seventh of the New Series, and contains a record of the work done during the past Session.
That work, as hitherto, embraces the communication of Original Papers; the exhibition of Patients, illustrating rare and interesting forms of disease; and the exhibition of Pathological and other specimens, so essential to the proper understanding of the morbid changes which take place in the human body.
During the past Session two Extra Meetings were held for Discussions on Special Subjects, - one on the Etiology of Tumours, introduced by Dr G. Sims Woodhead, Superintendent of the Royal College of Physicians" Laboratory; and the other on Animal Tuberculosis in relation to Consumption in Man, introduced by Principal Walley of the Edinburgh Veterinary College. It is hoped that such Meetings will materially increase the usefulness of the Society.
It is believed that the publication of the Transactions in this permanent form will prove a valuable contribution to medical literature, will encourage the Members to take a more active part in the work of the Society, and will tend in no small degree to increase the influence and usefulness of the Medico-Chirurgical Society of Edinburgh.
