TY - JOUR T1 - A text-book on gonorrhea and its complications. Y1 - 1914/03/07 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1914.02560350059033 JO - Journal of the American Medical Association SP - 799 EP - 799 VL - LXII IS - 10 N2 - This translation of an authoritative text-book by a well-known foreign author is exceedingly gratifying in view of the absence of good works in English on this subject, for the author and the translator have intelligently combined to make a work of great value for American readers. A well-written historical summary of the subject forms an interesting first chapter. It is a real text-book in that it endeavors to teach one subject thoroughly. The following statement from the preface of the translator is significant: "Some of our readers will regret that the references to vaccine treatment are brief; but as neither Dr. Luys nor myself are greatly impressed by its achievements, we decided not to enlarge the paragraph relating to it." The book is profusely illustrated. The work is reliable, simple and carefully written, and therefore to be recommended for those interested in this difficult subject.
