Book Description

Excerpt from The London Medical Student We are about to discuss a subject as critical and important to take up as the abdominal aorta; for should we offend the class we are about to portray, there are fifteen hundred medical students, at the different hospitals in London, ripe and ready to avenge themselves upon our devoted cranium, which, although hardened throughout its ligneous formation by many blows, would not be proof against their united efforts. And we scarcely know how or where to begin. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
