Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Veterinary and Comparative Ophthalmology
Owing to the many nebulous or erroneous ideas until quite recently held regarding the Anatomy, Physiology and Path ology of the Eye of Domesticated Animals, the Translator and Editor offers no apology for presenting this work on Veterinary and Comparative Ophthalmology to English speaking veterinary students and practitioners.
The need of such a work, which unless one had a know ledge of the Continental languages would remain a closed chapter, has long been felt, because although there are many {excellent treatises on human ophthalmology these are often misleading to the student of animal medicine.
This edition, which has been brought up to date and further illustrated by Dr. Nicolas, who, owing to his special predilections, has made a long continued and careful study of the subject, has also been added to, both in illustrations and text, by the Translator and is not merely a translation of the original work.
For all errors of omission and commission which have crept in, as pointed out in the corrigenda at the end of the book, and also for not following the type of the original text, the Translator takes full responsibility.
