Excerpt from The Essential Similarity of Innocent and Malignant Tumours: A Study of Tumour Growth

IN the pages which follow, I have somewhat extended the two Lectures on the Essential Similarity of Innocent and Malignant Tumours which I delivered in March 1904 to the Fellows of the Royal College of Surgeons, Edinburgh. An abstract of the Lectures was published in the British Medical Journal in June of the same year, and I have wished to publish an account of the argument in full, although unable to do so until the present time.

The illustrations of the three Selected Gradation Series are, with very few exceptions, process reproductions of photographs taken directly from specimens. The source of the specimen is in every case indicated, but I desire here to express my thanks to those who have allowed me to utilize the various specimens for my present purpose - ia, To the Museum Committee 'of the Royal College of Surgeons, Edinburgh; to the Council of the Royal College of Surgeons of England to Professor D. J. Cunningham, Keeper of the Anatomical Museum of the University of Edinburgh; to Professor G. S. Woodhead, Curator of the Humphry Museum, University of Cambridge; to Professor Chiene and to Mr. J. Hodsdon, of Edinburgh.
