Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the benefits and challenges of using books as a resource for dental students and professionals. The author emphasizes that dentistry is in a large degree an art and requires finger skill for its practice, which cannot be acquired from books. One may read all of dental literature and still not become a dentist. However, personal instruction cannot be continued and the author suggests that if the pupil has not learned to use books, his education will be finished when he leaves school. The author makes an insightful comparison between selective readers who take the time to analyze authors and subject readers who pursue a particular subject in depth. The author also warns against reading with a purely literary impulse or judging authors too closely from that standard. Instead, the author suggests being guided by the desire to know and the conscientious service of patients. Overall, this book provides a comprehensive guide to the use of books in dentistry, highlighting the importance of utilizing both personal instruction and literary resources for continued professional development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
