Excerpt from A Treatise on the Diseases of the Heart and Great Vessels, and on the Affections Which May Be Mistaken for Them: Comprising the Author's View of the Physiology of the Heart's Action and Sounds

IN preparing this edition of Dr. Hope's Treatise on the Diseases of the Heart, it has been the aim of the editor to offer it to the public in such a form as might render it a standard book of reference, embodying the opinions of him who was the first to unravel the intricacies of this important class of diseases, and to bring them Within the reach of medical diagnosis and treatment. With this view all material altera tions have been avoided; the judicious reasoning and practical information with which the work abounds, and which must always be valuable to the profession, have been preserved entire; and nothing has been added under the authority of Dr. Hope's name which had not received his sanction. At the same time, by the omission of the plates and some less important controversial matter, and by the adoption of a smaller type, the size of the volume has been diminished, and its price reduced.
