Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The British Medical Journal, Vol. 1: Being the Journal of the British Medical Association; January to June, 1875
Thus it appears that everything which experience and surgical capa city can do in the way of oral instruction will be done for the students, and, that the limited number who can be accommodated as dressers will have some opportunity of doing something for themselves; but the very perfection of the plan for instruction shows the prevalent weakness of the surgical tuition of the day. Students ?ock more and more to a few favourite centres, and there is not, and cannot be, enough hospital material to afford even the tithe of them anything like adequate opportunities for doing things for themselves. In Edinburgh, it is said there are eight hundred students at Some of our great London schools attached to hospitals, the number of the beds is less than that of the students. How is it possible for men to dress, examine, and attend to cases for themselves under such circumstances?
