Excerpt from Twentieth Century Practice, Vol. 1 of 20: An International Encyclopedia of Modern Medical Science by Leading Authorities of Europe and America, Diseases of the Uropoietic SystemTo those who realize the many and radical changes that have taken place in the healing art during the closing years of this century no apology is needed for the work here presented. W'ithin but little over a decade a new science has arisen and a new theory of intee tions diseases has been established, while the advances made in manv other branches of internal medicine have been hardly less remark able. Indeed it is not too much to say that a new era has be gun. One in which the rational treatment of disease engages the best thought of the best workers, supplementing, while not supplant ing, the study of pathological anatomy by which the preceding era was characterized. The science of medicine has been in great part recast - the time is now ripe for it to be rewritten. To this end the co-operation of many recognized authorities in Europe and America has been secured, the results of whose labors will be presented in the successive volumes of this series.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
