Excerpt from The Chronic Disorders of the Digestive Tube
This little book, with the exception of the chapter on habitual constipation, is made up of communications during the past year to the Journal of the American Medical Association, the New York Medical Journal, and the Medical Record. I have been persuaded to combine and reprint these articles under one cover, in order to present to the profession, in an easily accessible form, a short and practical study of the chronic disorders of the alimentary tract. Originally intended for serial publication, no very great changes have been found necessary to adapt them to the present form.
Great pains have been taken to make each chapter complete in itself. This plan has both its advantages and disadvantages. It relieves the busy reader of the necessity of going through the book in order to find the author"s treatment of a particular disorder; but it also renders it impossible to avoid repetition of certain basic and controlling principles. The importance (in the opinion of the writer) of these principles is a satisfactory explanation and apology for their frequent statement.
