A Selected List Of Books On Military Medicine And Surgery

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from A Selected List of Books on Military Medicine and Surgery: September 24, 1917 The present list seems the most directly useful way in Which the Library can make its resources available for the military centers now being created throughout the country. It has been prepared under the pressure of limited time and important events, and may not, either in selection or in edit ing, fulfill its ideal at all points, yet as a selection of recent and commendable literature it probably Will meet the need at the cantonments. The Library's collections in every field of Medicine are constantly growing, so it may be possible to supplement this list from time to time. While the list was intended to contain books only, yet it was deemed advisable to include a few selected references to articles in periodicals, on the subject of the treatment of war wounds, as no books on this subject were available. By a special appropriation the Directors have made pos sible the loan of a number of the books contained in this list. The loans will be made to the cantonment libraries for short periods. Periodicals as a rule cannot be lent, but photographic reproductions of articles can be furnished at a small expense.
