Excerpt from Practical Treatise on Appendicitis: Prepared Especially for the Use of Students and General Practitioners The aim of the author has been to prepare a helpful book, along practical lines, for the use of those whose bedside experience in appendicitis is limited. Much technical and theoretical matter has been purposely omitted as not coming properly within the scope of the work. It has throughout been the author's desire to present generally accepted rules of practice in preference to purely personal methods. The widest liberty of personal belief and action, however, is not only clearly recognized but cordially upheld. The author's contributions to the subject of appendicitis, covering a period of years, have appeared in The Medical Record, The Medical Visitor, The International Journal of Surgery, The Medical Era, The Homœopathic Physician and The Hahnemannian Advocate, but as this book was not written with a view to the exploiting of purely individual experiences he has questioned the propriety of introducing even illustrative cases from his own practice. Proper acknowledgments have, it is believed, been duly indicated in the text in all cases where direct references have been made; but, in a larger sense, a general and grateful tribute is due to the labors of Parker, Sands, Fitz, McBurney, Morris, Senn, Shrady, Richardson, Yan Lennep, Fowler, Bernays, Treves, Wyeth, Deaver, Murphy and White - names that have made the surgery of this century glorious for all coming time.
