Excerpt from A Text-Book of Pathology, Vol. 1: Systematic and Practical

Aberdeen University, it unavoidably fell into abeyance for a con siderable period. On resuming it, I felt that the system at first adopted was calculated to give too narrow a view of what has now become a very wide and important science; and I accordingly destroyed the early manuscript and remodelled the whole ab initio.

It will, I think, be granted that the Pathology of to-day is not delimitable merely as a matter of pure morbid anatomy, pathological histology, pathological physiology, pathological chemistry, or clinical medicine; but that these are simply the members of a great body, and that they are indissolubly band together. All pathologists of renown, at home and sinned, hare served a lengthy apprenticeship in morbid anatomy prior to their becoming exponents of the science of disease. And, for that matter, the continuance in after life of daily observatim in the post-mortem theatre is as essential to the pathologist as digital study is to the physician, seeing that it is here that subjects {or further inquiry suggest themselves.
