Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rhinology: A Text Book of Diseases of the Nose and the Nasal Accessory Sinuses
The author's endeavour has been to present concisely the science as well as the practice of rhinology, since practice which is not founded on scientific principles becomes empirical, and the practitioner lacks the knowledge which alone can guide him through the maze of ever new operations and methods of treatment inevitable in any relatively young and rapidly developing branch of medical art. To fulfil conditions essential to an ideal text book, dogmatic statements are restricted to well-ascertained facts, while on debatable ground the opinions of the chief authorities on diseases of the nose are stated, as far as possible. In the limited space, in order that the student may be guided to intelligent choice of alternatives in practice.
