TY - JOUR T1 - A text-book of pathology. Y1 - 1929/03/09 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1929.02700360071037 JO - Journal of the American Medical Association SP - 833 EP - 834 VL - 92 IS - 10 N2 - This textbook appeared first in 1916. There is no need now for some of the suggestions contained in former reviews (The Journal, Sept. 16, 1916, p. 899; Jan. 29, 1921, p. 332; May 16, 1924, p. 1517). The author frankly stated in the preface to the first edition that it was not designed as a work of reference and that no attempt was made to follow the usual arrangement in similar works, of subdivisions based on anatomic construction. Although the original design has been followed closely, the improvements with each revision have certainly made the book of use for reference purposes and in some respects there are definite indications of grouping the diseases by viscera. After the principles of disease commonly included under general pathology and occupying about one fifth of the work are discussed, most of the important diseases are reviewed. They are grouped, so far as possible, on SN - 0002-9955 M3 - doi: 10.1001/jama.1929.02700360071037 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.1929.02700360071037 ER -
