Excerpt from The Retrospect of Practical Medicine and Surgery, Vol. 1: Being a Half-Yearly Journal, Containing a Retrospective View of Every Discovery and Practical Improvement in the Medical Sciences; January to July, 1840 Nothing would have been more easy than to have altered the words of the different authors so as to give the same information more in the words of the editor himself; but he aims more at being made useful to his brother practitioners than to run away with any honor which might belong to another. It has therefore, been his endeavour to add as little as possible to the original articles - curtailing and condensing them, however, as much as possible, so as to be accommodated to the size of the present volume. For example, many of the articles which are here given, are very long ones in the journals from which they are extracted, and therefore every portion which is not strictly practical has been omitted, and only the most useful portions retained; and still the articles remain in the words of the authors or the reviewers which will be found a great advantage, as the practical man only wants facts and observations to be laid before him, and he will always be able to draw his own conclusions as well as when assisted by the opinion of a second or a third person.
