Book Description

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Medical and Surgical Diseases of Infancy and Childhood Such advances have recently been made in our knowledge of the etiology, pathology, and therapeutic requirements of the diseases of children, that in the preparation of the eighth edition the rewriting of a large part of the book, with the addition of new chapters, has been necessary. Hence an increase in the number of pages was unavoidable, although the material has been condensed so far as was compatible with clearness of description.
