Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ophthalmoscope and Lues When we have to deal vith questions relating to the more special branches of medicine, the results of historical in vestigations will always be found more or less uncertain; not because the observations of the ancients were less accurate than ours, or their descriptions of the diseases less precise; but because their explanations of the symptoms were different, and their means of making a more detailed diagnosis imper feet as compared with ours. Their nosological system, too, was quite different from that of our days;being in some respects certainly, more minutely subdivided, in other, on the contrary, so imperfectly elaborated, that groups of diseases essentially different in kind may be found classified together. No won der therefore that, as a rule, it is difficult, or even sometimes impossible, from their records, to recognise diseases, which to the modern physician, are obvious as typical forms. Perhaps of no other branch of medicine does this remark hold so good as of ophthalmology. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
