J53 H696 1886 TRANSLATORS' PREFACE. WE have undertaken the translation of this little work, hoping that it will supply a need which has been long felt by American students and physicians. We do not know of a single work in the English language where, in a concise form, so many valuable suggestions and practical hints are offered, both as regards analysis and diagnosis. The book does not pretend to be an elaborate and exhaustive treatise on the diseases of the genito-urinary organs; such an idea is at once precluded by the title and size of the work. It merely claims to contain all that is necessary for the student and practicing physician. The merit of the work is sufficiently attested by the popularity it already enjoys in Germany and Austria, and the fact of its having appeared in three languages during the year of its publication. |
