Synopsis
Excerpt from The Ear and Its Diseases: Being Practical Contributions to the Study of Otology
The Author has not attempted to present to the profession a treatise on'the ear embracing the entire field of otology, but he trusts that the particular subjects embraced in the work, and to which he has directed more special attention, may be found of ser vice to those interested, whilst not devoid of interest to the otolo gist. To the Author's early acquired vogue of noting in detail matters of practical interest in private and hospital practice is due the accumulation of the records of some ten thousand aural cases, or about one-third of all such that have passed through his hands during the past twenty years. It is at the earnest request of his professional friends, and many of the practitioners and students who have attended his aural clinics at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, and formerly at the New York Ear Dispensary, that he has been induced to select from this and from his published writings, the material of which this work is composed.
