Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Guide to Diseases of the Nose and Throat and Their Treatment
I am much indebted to many friends, and amongst others it gives me great pleasure to acknowledge my obligations to my colleague, Dr. H. L. Lack, for much useful criticism, to Dr. James Atkinson and Mr. F. A. Rose for reading the manuscript and for making many useful suggestions, and to Dr. E. A. Peters for help in correcting the final proofs. I must also express my gratitude to Dr. T. J. Horder for giving me the opportunity of discussing with him several points bearing on general medicine.
In the matter of illustrations I wish particularly to express my sincere thanks to Dr. Morell. Mackenzie, who has kindly placed at my disposal the blocks illustrating Sir Morell Mackenzie's book on Diseases of the Throat and Nose. Seventy of these finely executed drawings I have used with pleasure, being of opinion that they are more useful, especially for teaching purposes, than many of the coloured illustrations of more recent production.
I am also indebted to Dr. J. E. Adler for many original draw ings, to Dr. Logan Turner and Dr. Lack for the loan of a few blocks, and to my house-surgeon, Dr. C. Mon Stewart, for kindly assistance in superintending the photographic illustrations.
