Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Inflammation of the Uterus, Its Cervix and Appendages, and on Its Connection With Uterine Disease
IN preparing the Third Edition of this work for publication, I have carefully revised it, and have made various additions, which will, I trust, render it more complete. I have also Slightly altered the arrange ment Of the chapters, with a view to improve the general plan.
Within the last few years, the doctrines which I have advocated in the previous editions have made great progress, and have been adopted by a large, intellectual, and in?uential section of the medical profession at home, as also by many practitioners in our colonies. I have, indeed, received the most gratifying and satisfactory testimonies of adhesion and approbation from the most distant parts of the globe, the result of actual investigation of the subject.
I may likewise add, as evidence of the growing importance which is everywhere attached to this department of pathology, that both editions of the work have been republished in America, that the first has been translated into German, and the second into French.
Under such circumstances, I may certainly be allowed to pass un noticed the opposition which I have met with. Believing thoroughly in the correctness of the facts and doctrines which I have advanced, I shall henceforth leave them in the hands of the profession, under the conviction that eventually they must and will be adopted and acted upon by the entire medical community.
