Excerpt from Practical Treatise on the Diseases of the Ear: Including the Anatomy of the Organ His work is intended to be a guide to those who wish to treat the diseases of the ear. The portion that is devoted to a description of these diseases, and the means for their relief and cure, is founded upon my own experience in the observation and treatment of more than thirty-eight hundred cases, in public and private practice. I have, however, taken pains to give the cxperi ence of other practitioners, both at home and abroad. I have endeavored not only to give a comprehensive digest of the most recent European researches, but also to present with entire impar tiality, the views and experiences of American practitioners and writers, so far as the plan of a practical treatise like this would allow. To give a complete account of all that has been written on Otology has not, however, been my aim. Considerable space has been given to illustrative cases, with a view of showing the actual symptoms of aural diseases and the results of treatment. I have also added historical sketches upon all points of practice that are new or still under discussion, in order that the successive steps by which our present position has been reached might be distinctly traced, believing that thereby the practitioner will often be saved needless labor in te-investigating and re-experimenting. The nomenclature contained in this treatise is that which I have found, after some years of experience in Ice turing upon diseases of the ear, most readily grasped by the stu dent, and is, I believe, founded upon the real nature of the diseases.
