Abstract
This volume is the second supplement to an eight volume system of the Practice of Medicine and Surgery published in 1931. The first supplement was published in 1936. A wide range of material in all fields of therapy and diagnosis is covered. An index of the scope of the book is given by a few titles: carotid sinus surgery, ski accidents, sulfonamide drugs, pelvic measurements, surgical treatment of tuberculosis, electroencephalograms, treatment of megacolon, cardiac surgery. The illustrations throughout the book are excellent. The treatment of the subject matter differs somewhat in emphasis from the American literature; for example, there is a longer section on ski accidents than on the sulfonamide drugs. However, there is at least brief mention of the most important changes in medical practice to the date of publication. This book should prove a useful compendium and almanac to any one able to read French.
