Excerpt from General Surgery: A Presentation of the Scientific Principles Upon Which the Practice of Modern Surgery Is Based

MY associate, Dr. Lewis, and myself have undertaken the translating and editing of this text-book on General Surgery, written by Prof. Erich Lexer, because we believe that it presents the present status of the subject of general surgery in a more thorough and complete way than any other text-book.

This work is a presentation of the scientific principles upon which the practice of modern surgery is based.

In text-books on surgery in all languages two great divisions of the subject are made, and to these two divisions of the subject various names have been given. In England and America, the terms the Science and Art of Surgery and the Principles and Practice of Surgery have been generally employed. On the Continent, the terms General and Special Surgery are used.
