Syphilis (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Syphilis
In preparing this volume for the profession it has been the aim of the author to present the subject of syphilis in as practical a manner as possible. For this reason a considerable portion of the work is devoted to diagnosis and treatment. The chapter on laboratory diagnosis is made especially full, as today the desirability, in fact the necessity, of laboratory aid is more evident for the successful treatment of syphilis than for any other disease. Matters of theoretical and historical interest, of course, are discussed, but usually only when they have some bearing upon the practical handling of the subject.
The author has drawn freely from the literature of syphilis at his command for his material and has added his personal views and experiences. In all instances, when possible, he has given credit to those authors whose work he has cited.
During the three years which have elapsed since the appearance of the first edition the author has been particularly impressed with the importance of visceral syphilis. For that reason he has attempted to review the literature and has practically rewritten the sections dealing with this subject. Certain other sections, for example, that on the syphilodermata, have been somewhat amplified.
The literature on syphilis which has been published during the time since the appearance of the first edition has been thoroughly reviewed and all new material of importance added.
