    EDITOR'S rilEFACE. In arrnngiiii!; for the cditorsliij) of The Medical Epitome Series the publishers (■st:il)li>lH'(l a few simple conditions, namely, that the Series as a whole shoiihl emhraee the entire realm of medicine; that the individnal volnnics shonld authoritatively cover their respective subjects in all essentials; and that the maximum amount of information, in letter-press and engravings, should be given for a mini- mum price. It was the belief of publishers and editor alike that brief works of high character would render valuable service not only to students, but also to practi- tioners who might wish to refresh or supplement their knowledge to date. To the authors the editor extends his heartiest thanks for their excellent work. They have fully justified his choice in inviting them to undertake a kind of literary task which is always ditHcidt—namely, the combination of brevity, clear- ness, and eom})rehensiveness. They have equalled the con- scientious efforts with which the editor has performed his duties from first to last. Co-operation of this kind ought to result in useful books, in brief manuals as contradistin- guished from mere eompends. In order to render the volumes suitable for quizzing, and yet ])r('serve the ('(mtinuitv of the text unbroken, the ques- tions have been gatluTcd at the end of eacli chapter. This new arrangement, it is hoped, will be convenient alike to students and j)ractitioners. Yktor C. Pedersen. New York, 1903.
