The Practice Of Surgery by James Miller. This 19th-century surgical manual offers a comprehensive, step-by-step guide for surgeons and medical students. It surveys a wide range of topics from orthopedic and lower-limb injuries to advanced operative techniques and postoperative care. Core sections cover dislocations of the ankle and hindfoot, talus and tarsal bone displacements, and the management tree from attempted reductions to excision or amputation in severe cases. It also treats deformities such as talipes (clubfoot) and flat-foot, with discussion of congenital and acquired forms, tendon divisions, tenotomy timing, and early mobilization. The work extends to corns, bunions, nail growths, and nail bed procedures, amputations and meticulous stump care, and ultimate considerations of prosthetic fitting. Beyond the limb, it presents philosophy of surgery, prioritizing life, limb, and function, and advocates staged management, precise anatomy, and safe technique. The book is framed as a practical, instructive manual for surgeons of the era, reflecting Liston’s circle and the culture of 19th-century operative medicine.
