Book Description
Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Medical Diagnosis for Students and Physicians IN the preface to the fifth edition, it was stated that the original purpose of the work was to make it an exponent of objective medicine and to point out the way to acquire precision in diagnosis. In revising the work of my father, Dr. J. H. Musser, I have carefully endeavored to keep this purpose before me, preserving the splendid store of clinical material in the book and bringing it abreast of our knowledge of today. While I have carefully retained the plan and methods pursued in preparing the last edition, the enormous advances in medical science during the past eight years made it imperative that the book should be practically rewritten. This necessity rendered it possible, by re arrangement and by judicious condensation, to make the present edition of a more convenient size, while it is believed that none of those factors to which the great popularity of the earlier editions was due, have been sacrificed.
