[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Venereal Diseases: Their Complications and Sequelae A former work of identical title, from the pen of the senior author of this volume, appeared in January, 1880, twenty years ago, as one of "Wood's Library." It had two objects in view, both of which have been accomplished. The first object was to combat the then raging furor for anterior urethrotomy which possessed the younger members of the profession. This is now happily over, and a certain amount of good has followed the excess. Strictures of the pendulous urethra are understood and managed better to-day than twenty years ago. The second and most important object was to disseminate the author's teachings upon the treatment of syphilis. This tonic treatment, by the prolonged mild use of mercury in such a way as to do the patient no harm while his malady was being mastered, is to-day so widely spread and so well understood, and has been accepted so largely, if judgment be rendered according to the evidence at command, that there is no reason to make any radical change, in so far as syphilis is concerned, in the presentation of this subject. But that book has long since ceased to be a safe guide in its urethral teachings on account of the strides made in bacteriology and therapeutics during the last decade. The younger blood of the junior author and his point of view, together with a general growing experience, have revolutionized many of the ideas advanced in the former treatise, and the time has seemed ripe to us to join hands in authorship for the purpose of placing the result of our combined experience before the profession in a practical way. This volume is the result. In it is reproduced the senior author's original teaching concerning chancroid and syphilis, the latter practically in the whole piece making little change further than to cut out references and cases to reduce the volume of the text, but the chapter on chancroid has been reconstructed. A valuable chapter on nervous syphilis has been contributed by Dr. Pearce Bailey, consulting neurologist at St. Luke's Hospital, and to him the authors render public acknowledgment.
