Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Pitfalls
IN the writing of this book, the author has had always one object in mind and that was to bring before the minds of medical men, as. Well as the pub lic at large, the many pitfalls into which they are ever in danger of being precipitated.
If the warnings contained in the following chap ters should have the effect of opening our eyes to certain dangers, thereby preventing any future mis takes, I will feel that its object will be fulfilled as we all know It is human to err, and to forgive divine.
The chapters are taken from notes of twenty years' experience and - barring some f rills - are true to life, showing the many peculiar incidents - tragic an'd otherwise - that crop up in the life of a doctor.
As to the author's connection with What is written here, all that may be said, my dear reader, is that they are only twice-told Tales.
