A Handbook Of Medical Diagnosis For The Use Of Practitioners And Students PDF Download

Excerpt from Medical Diagnosis: A Manual for Students and Practitioners This little volume embodies the author's conception of the type of book most generally useful to the overtaxed student and general practitioner. And he has tried to make it a concise, practical, and thoroughly modern handbook of convenient size and form. It is not a mere compend, nor yet is it intended that it shall take the place of the many elaborate and valuable larger works relating to medical diagnosis. But it represents an effort to achieve the requisite completeness through direct state ment. Logical arrangement, and the avoidance of unproven or unessential theories and obsolete, time-consuming or superfluous methods. To the same end. Marginal notes and running page headlines supplement the full index. And the illustrations, small in size though large in number. Are believed to possess the virtues of simplicity and teaching value. The author hopes that he may have in some measure succeeded in meeting the exacting requirements of an undertaking, the difficulties of which are in inverse ratio to the size of the product.
