Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution and Perfection of the Aseptic Surgical Technique These fundamental bacteriologic principles compose the basis of modern surgery. Within a few years standard and classic treatises on surgery were rendered obsolete new text books had to be written. The science and art of surgery attained a perfection in practical results surpassing the highest ideals of the surgeons Of preceding generations. New departments of surgery were established and regions invaded which were hitherto outside the scope of Operative treatment. The science and practice of midwifery were also revolutionmd and all former teachings recast. The results are the pride of our profession and the wonder of the latter half Of the nineteenth century. The influence of the discovery and classification of the pathogenic bacteria upon surgery can scarcely be appro ciated by surgeons themselves without reflection. Indeed, until this time surgery could scarcely be called a science it was practiced for the most part as an art.
