    PREFACE. ed ty the following Work it has been my object to describe the Surgical Anatomy of the Head and Neck. J have not, however, entirely confined my attention to the Anatomy of the Head and Neck, and to the practical. deductions from that alone; but, on the contrary, [I have entered pretty fully into the consideration of the gene- ral principles which ought to regulate us in the treatment of some diseases incident to the Neck, in common with other parts of the body. This I have especially done in regard to. Anecurism, the practical doctrines of which I have examin- ed, and, in some instances, freely criticised. I have also entered occasional remarks on the na- ture of Tumours, but these are very cursory and limited. They are, however, as full as I thought my object in introducing them required.
