Synopsis

Excerpt from Hand-Book for Hospitals

Again out of print, another edition is now called for. 1 No more recent publication can be found which, in all respects, supplies its place and, although one hesitates to alter a word of an original manuscript when the hand that penned it is still, no other course was left to the Managers of the Association but to appoint a special committee, to revise and edit this third edition of the hand-book.

Not often has a task so easy or so grateful been assigned to any committee. Twelve years have elapsed since the publication was last revised by the author, and yet the work then done was so thorough, the personal knowledge of the subject so exceptional, and the standard of excellence so high, that, beyond the bringing of statistics up to date, and the addition of some footnotes, to show the advance, within a very few years, of hygienic requirements, there were but few alterations to be made.
