Book excerpt: Excerpt from The International Encyclopaedia of Surgery, Vol. 7 of 7: A Systematic Treatise on the Theory and Practice of Surgery by Authors of Various Nations; Supplementary Volume In carrying out the intention to make the volume a supplement to its predecessors, the authors of the several articles have had constantly in mind the necessity of not unnecessarily repeating what is already in the possession of the reader; and very variable amounts of space have therefore been occupied in the consideration of the several subjects dis cussed. Some topics were so elaborately presented in the earlier por tions of the work that, in the absence of any great quantity of new material, they have in the present volume been summarily dealt with; while as regards other subjects the activity of surgeons and surgical writers has been so intense that in some instances more space has been required for the supplementary record than seven years ago was needed for the original article. As an example may be mentioned the subject of Cerebral Surgery, which may almost be said to have come into exist ence since the revised edition of the Encyclopaedia was published.
