Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Operations of Surgery (Jacobson), Vol. 1: The Upper Extremity; The Head and Neck; The Thorax; The Lower Extremity; The Vertebral Column
The plan of the book, with which some judges found fault, remains unchanged. Mr. Jacobson adopted the division by regions deliberately, desiring that those for whom the book is intended should study the anatomy of each region at the same time as the account of the operations. In this edition it has been found convenient to insert the section on the Leg in the first volume, so that the increasing claims of abdominal surgery could be adequately met in the second volume.
