Book excerpt: Excerpt from Surgical Anatomy, Vol. 1 of 3: A Treatise on Human Anatomy in Its Application to the Practice of Medicine and Surgery; Upper Extremity, Back of Neck, Shoulder, Trunk, Cranium, Scalp, Face This book has been twelve years in preparation. During this time, while no change has been made in its plan, its scope has been much enlarged, to meet a wider field than for which it was first intended. My original purpose was to furnish for students a text-book Of Surgical Anatomy, then much needed and not obtainable by them. 2i have made a book which will be serviceable, I hope, not alone to them, but to practising physicians and surgeons. While, I regret to say, this subject is much neglected in our American institutions, there came to be, nevertheless, during the progress of this work, an increasing and encouraging recognition Of its importance. In some schools the course was much enlarged in others new courses were established. In my own classes the work has constantly grown, until it has become not alone an adjunct to, and application of, descriptive anatomy, but rather the bridge between that study and practice of surgery itself. To meet these requirements it has not been sufficient for me to emphasize and clarify the facts of descriptive anatomy as required Of undergraduates. I have been compelled to bring to them the knowledge Of anatomy which I have used and as I have used it in surgical practice. My book has kept pace with this change and growth. I have in no case cut down descriptions nor the teaching devoted to surgical anatomy, nor directions for and procedure in dissection, but I have added much relating to surgical work. I have endeavored to regard fully the necessities of undergraduates, and at the same time have had in mind constantly the requirements which they will meet as surgeons in their chosen field, and have tried to make for them a sufficient work of reference for use in actual practice.
