Excerpt from Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery

The object of the author has been to place before the profession a thoroughly practical and concise treatise on plastic and cosmetic surgery. The importance of this branch of practice is at the present time undeniable, yet the literature on this subject is widely scattered and scanty. It consists mostly of small, detached papers or reports in different countries, with an occasional refer ence in text-books on general surgery.

The author feels, from the numerous inquiries made him by physicians from many parts of the world con cerning methods herein described, that there is now an actual need for an authoritative work on this subject.

Great care has been taken to select the best matter and to present it with comprehensive illustrations every physician can readily and confidently refer to.

Skin-grafting has been particularly gone into, as well as electrolysis as applied to dermatology, with informa tion as to the construction and scientific use of apparatus involved.
