Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Semeiology and Diagnosis of Diseases of Children, Vol. 1 of 2: Together With a Therapeutic Index
Many illustrations appear in this American edition that it is hoped will at least not detract from the merit of the text.
So far as possible due credit is given to the references from literature.
A word should be said about the therapeutic index. This is arranged alphabetically and can be very readily consulted by the reader in connection with any particular affection mentioned in the text, or is quickly available without the text. This last feature is the best reason for the present plan, which has been preserved in the original under very favorable general regard.
The extreme simplicity in all remedial measures will strike the reader at once.
Finally it may be mentioned that the publishers have spared no effort of any kind to make the work as creditable in this country as it has been in Russia, France and Germany.
