PREFACE.

In preparing the Fourth Edition of this work, I have again revised it thoroughly, and have endeavoured to bring the information which it contains as nearly as possible up to the present date. The chapters relating to the Absorbent System and the Nervous System have received special attention, and important additional matter has been introduced in connection with these subjects. I trust that the work may still be found adequate to the requirements of Students and Practitioners of Medicine,

THE AUTHOR.
