Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Roller Bandage: With a Chapter on Surgical Dressing The plan which has been adopted in this book, as will be seen at a glance, is to teach by nu mercus illustrations rather than by elaborate description the method of applying the roller bandage. In order that the student may most readily familiarize himself with this very im portant subject, a series of illustrations is presented which were made in the following manner: Each bandage was applied to a living model, and whenever the. Roller pursued a course which the author has found in his association with students was the cause of any uncertainty, it was at once photographed. From these pho tographs accurate drawings were made. In this way it is hoped that the intricate course trav ersed by the roller in the most complex dressing has been made sufficiently plain to enable the student to apply it for himself almost unaided by the text. The latter will be found very brief and devoid of everything but the rule for application and the use to which the dressmg is commonly put. A series of definitions and general rules for bandaging occupy the earlier pages of the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
