Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Military Surgery Being a Discourse delivered by the Author at the Opening of a Course of Lee tures on Military Surgery, at Bellevue Medical College, New York, April, 1861. Gentlemen - War is the normal condition of mankind; pe.ace is the abnormal condition. This statement is not flattering to a people claiming Christianity and boasting of its civilization it is nevertheless true, and the fact must be accepted. History is little else than a record Of the contentions, conflicts, and conquests of nations. The sword and the cross, conventional emblems of battle-fields, stand as thick upon the round surface Of the terrestrial sphere as stars upon the surface Of the celestial. Each year, and almost every month in the year, commemorates some new achievement of arms, and places a new symbol upon the map; SO that now, in the middle of the nineteenth cen tury, as when Isaiah wrote, it is only in prophetic Vision that we see the approach of that happy day when swords Shall be beaten into ploughshares and Spears into pruning hooks, and nations Shall not learn war any more.

Excerpt: ...strong loops upon the opposite margins;. in which case they might be doubled upon themselves so that all the loops should be upon1 the same margin. Through these loops a gun might then be thrust, and another gun through the doubling. Dr. George Suckley, late Surgeon in the United States Army, says, that he has occasionally, in frontier service, constructed a temporary stretcher of two poles cut from the forest; these being laid upon the edges of a blanket, rolled in, and finally made fast with strong twine, by puncturing the blanket at intervals of a foot along the sides of the poles and tying the'twine strongly on the outside. A very simple and ingenious method of conveyance is to make use of the soldier's overcoat as a sacking. The sleeves being turned inside out, and a musket thrust through each sleeve, the wounded man is laid upon the coat and it is then buttoned together in front. Two men standing between the ends of the guns may now lift him easily; but the conveyance will be made more secure by detaching the leather slings from the guns and passing them under the body, or if they are unnecessary here, they may be employed to cross over the shoulders of the carriers. Canvas may be substituted for the overcoat, guns being used for poles, as we learn from Retzius, is the practice sometimes in the Swedish army. HAND-LITTER, MADE WITH GUNS. (From Galton.) To all of these methods there exists the serious objection that they have no "traverses" or "stretchers" to prevent the bottom from sinking down, while at the same time the guns or poles are pressed uncomfortably against the hips of the bearers. Ballingall thinks that Dr. Millingen has suggested the "most simple, efficient, and practicable" contrivance...

Download or read book Surgery and Diseases of the Mouth and Jaws written by Vilray Papin Blair and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Surgery and Diseases of the Mouth and Jaws: A Practical Treatise on the Surgery and Diseases of the Mouth and Allied Structures No surgical truth has received greater emphasis in this war than the necessity of correlating the skill and the knowledge of the general and the dental surgeons in the treatment of the combined injuries of the face and the jaw bones. An eminent authority on military surgery said, after the war of 1870-71: I should not care to go through another campaign without having obtained competent technical assistance for those who have sustained injury of the face and fractured jaw." The present revision is mostly confined to the parts related to injury and sepsis and their treatment, and was done by the Section of Surgery of the Head, Subsection of Plastic and Oral Surgery, as an expeditious method of giving, in a correlated form, the sum of the observations of the many workers abroad, to whose reports and recommendations, published, written and verbal, this section had access. These were put forth in this form because, on the one hand, time did not permit of a full exposition of the subject in a special manual: while on the other, it would be of less utility and somewhat awkward to attempt to present these observations while disregarding the well-established principles upon which they are based. The subject of peridental infections has been rewritten by Dr. Arthur D. Black, of Chicago, and read by Dr. Thomas L. Gilmer, Most of the illustrations were furnished by Dr. Black. The chapter on local anesthesia has been revised by the original author, and that on general anesthesia by Dr. Ellis Fischel. Because of insufficient time, the other chapters, not referred to in this preface, were not revised. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2008-10 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREFACE. THE Author of this very practical treatise on Scotch Loch - Fishing desires clearly that it may be of use to all who had it. He does not pretend to have written anything new, but to have attempted to put what he has to say in as readable a form as possible. Everything in the way of the history and habits of fish has been studiously avoided, and technicalities have been used as sparingly as possible. The writing of this book has afforded him pleasure in his leisure moments, and that pleasure would be much increased if he knew that the perusal of it would create any bond of sympathy between himself and the angling community in general. This section is interleaved with blank shects for the readers notes. The Author need hardly say that any suggestions addressed to the case of the publishers, will meet with consideration in a future edition. We do not pretend to write or enlarge upon a new subject. Much has been said and written-and well said and written too on the art of fishing but loch-fishing has been rather looked upon as a second-rate performance, and to dispel this idea is one of the objects for which this present treatise has been written. Far be it from us to say anything against fishing, lawfully practised in any form but many pent up in our large towns will bear us out when me say that, on the whole, a days loch-fishing is the most convenient. One great matter is, that the loch-fisher is depend- ent on nothing but enough wind to curl the water, -and on a large loch it is very seldom that a dead calm prevails all day, -and can make his arrangements for a day, weeks beforehand whereas the stream- fisher is dependent for a good take on the state of the water and however pleasant and easy it may be for one living near the banks of a good trout stream or river, it is quite another matter to arrange for a days river-fishing, if one is looking forward to a holiday at a date some weeks ahead. Providence may favour the expectant angler with a good day, and the water in order but experience has taught most of us that the good days are in the minority, and that, as is the case with our rapid running streams, -such as many of our northern streams are, -the water is either too large or too small, unless, as previously remarked, you live near at hand, and can catch it at its best. A common belief in regard to loch-fishing is, that the tyro and the experienced angler have nearly the same chance in fishing, -the one from the stern and the other from the bow of the same boat. Of all the absurd beliefs as to loch-fishing, this is one of the most absurd. Try it. Give the tyro either end of the boat he likes give him a cast of ally flies he may fancy, or even a cast similar to those which a crack may be using and if he catches one for every three the other has, he may consider himself very lucky. Of course there are lochs where the fish are not abundant, and a beginner may come across as many as an older fisher but we speak of lochs where there are fish to be caught, and where each has a fair chance. Again, it is said that the boatman has as much to do with catching trout in a loch as the angler. Well, we dont deny that. In an untried loch it is necessary to have the guidance of a good boatman but the same argument holds good as to stream-fishing...

Download or read book Crucial Interventions An Illustrated Treatise on the Principles Practice of Nineteenth Century Surgery written by Richard Barnett and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2015-11-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautifully illustrated look at the evolution of surgery, as revealed through rare technical illustrations, sketches, and oil paintings The nineteenth century saw major advances in the practice of surgery. In 1750, the anatomist John Hunter described it as “a humiliating spectacle of the futility of science”; yet, over the next 150 years the feared, practical men of medicine benefited from a revolution in scientific progress and the increased availability of instructional textbooks. Anesthesia and antisepsis were introduced. Newly established medical schools improved surgeons’ understanding of the human body. For the first time, surgical techniques were refined, illustrated in color, and disseminated on the printed page. Crucial Interventions follows this evolution, drawing from magnificent examples of rare surgical textbooks from the mid-nineteenth century. Graphic and sometimes unnerving yet beautifully rendered, these fascinating illustrations, acquired from the Wellcome Collection’s extensive archives, include step-by-step surgical techniques paired with depictions of medical instruments and depictions of operations in progress. Arranged for the layman (from head to toe) Crucial Interventions is a captivating look at the early history of one of the world’s most mysterious and macabre professions.
