PREFACE.

THIS book is a reprint of Lectures which have already appeared in the Lancet, and which, as Hunterian Professor, I had the honour to deliver in February and March 1895, at the Royal College of Surgeons of England. I venture to reprint them in the hope that they may thereby be more useful to my fellow-workers in this difficult subject. I also wish very heartily to thank those gentlemen who have assisted me with the investigations.
