Book Description

Excerpt from Southern Medical and Surgical Journal, 1845, Vol. 1 But arrangements have now been made which justify the revival of the work, and render certain its future continuance. The Journal has been placed under the editorial management of two mem bers of the Faculty. They would distrust their own ability to carry on so laborious, and responsible an undertaking, but they are led to make the effort by the promise of the valuable aid of their colleagues, and of other distinguished members of the profession in this and the adjoining States. They have entire confidence in the ability of Southern physicians, to furnish matter which will do honor to themselves, and prove highly useful to the profession. We therefore cordially solicit them to furnish us with their communications, not only upon medical subjects, but also upon any of the collateral sciences. It is proposed to devote a portion of the Journal to Reviews of new works, and to such Extracts from these, and from other periodicals, as may be useful and interesting. Another part of the Journal will be appropriated to a general Sum mary of the improvements and discoveries in medicine, which are being made throughout the world. The facilities of the Editors for this part of their task are ample, as they are now regularly receiving all of the most valuable European and American Medical Journals.
