Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Past, Present, and Future of the School for Advanced Medical Studies of University College, London: Being the Introductory Address at the Opening of the Winter Session, October, 1906
IN apologising for the publication of such a transitory paper as an Introductory Address two explanations may be given. First it is an attempt to describe in a concise and readable form the educational difficulties on account of which University College was founded, and to show how from this beginning the University of London, the Hospital and the School of Advanced Medical Studies came into existence. These matters, which were keenly exciting only eighty years ago, are now rapidly passing into oblivion and may well soon be completely forgotten.
