It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the publisher to a library and finally to you.

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

Preface To Third Edition

In presenting to the profession and students of medicine the third edition of this work the author wishes gratefully to acknowledge the cordial reception that was accorded the last edition. Although over twice the size of the first edition, the second was exhausted in nearly the same length of time ; it appeared late in the autumn of 1897 and was exhausted in the following year.

The pressure of other duties rendered it impossible for the author to give the work the revision that seemed necessary, and therefore it has been out of print for nearly two years. During that time the author has occupied his spare moments in revising, rewriting, and rearranging the subject-matter. A number of the old illustrations have been replaced by new, and many original drawings have been added.

The author's conviction that properly prepared figures are of the utmost importance in elucidating the subject under consideration remains unchanged ; in accord with this view the number of illustrations has been increased from two hundred and sixtyeight to three hundred and thirty ; practically all those added are original. For the first time, a few colored plates are introduced.

The chapter on postmortems has been revised, and new methods have been introduced in the chapters on technic. Bacteriologic technic has been placed in a chapter by itself, and the technic of blood examination has been transferred to the chapter on the blood, with which it properly belongs. Special technic has been added throughout the book ; whenever it was necessar>' to adopt any special means for demonstrating a reaction or for satisfactorily staining morbid products, the method lias been

given with the consideration of the materials to be treated. New chapters have been added, including the following : The thymus body, ductless glands, muscles, bones and joints, and the nervous system. These, added to the very much lengthened chapters originally present, have increased the size of the volume by a little over one-third.

The chapter on diseases of the nervous system has been written by Dr. H. F. Harris, Associate Professor of Pathology in the Jefferson Medical College, whose experience as a clinical teacher of diseases of the nervous system and work as an investigator have fitted him for the consideration of the subject with which the chapter deals. The author has been placed under many obligations to Dr. Harris for his supervision of the additional drawings, many of which have been made under his direct superintendence.

The author is also greatly indebted to Dr. Randle C. Rosenberger for aid in the compilation of stain reactions and biologic peculiarities of the bacteria, as well as for arranging the index of parts I and II. Dr. Frederick J. Kalteyer has aided by kindly loaning specimens for illustrations. The table on the blood occupying pages 448 and 449 is largely the product of his energy. Mr. Duncan L. Despard has assisted in the preparation of the index.

The reproduction of the new illustrations, both in black and white and in colors, has been trusted entirely to the publishers, to whom the author is under many obligations for the careful execution of this most difficult task.

In conclusion the author wishes to state that'the object of the book has not been changed, and that the present edition, although greatly enlarged, remains exactly what the author intended the previous edition to be : namely, "not a treatise or book of reference, but, .is its title indicates, a manual that the author hopes may be useful in the laboratory and postint)rtem room and in clinical diagnosis by the aid of the microscope."

Preface To Second Edition

During the winter of 1894 and 1895, Messrs. P. Blakiston, Son & Co. published, in serial form, abstracts of the writer's lectures, entitled *' Lectures on Pathology." At the close of the college session the fasciculi were bound, and the resulting volume placed on the market. Very much to the surprise of the publishers, as well as of the writer, the edition lasted less than nine months. It was exhausted at a time when the teaching of the college year precluded the revision which the matter so much needed. During the past six months the entire book has been revised, the larger part having been entirely rewritten. The first edition contained 250 pages and 51 illustrations ; the present volume, in the face of every effort to condense without sacrificing accuracy, has reached 638 pages and contains 268 illustrations. The most difficult problem has been to keep the volume from assuming undesired dimensions, and, now that the work is completed, the writer wishes to say, parenthetically, that a volume of twice the size could have been produced with probably less labor. Being practically a new book, there are, no doubt, typographic and grammatic errors. The writer acknowledges in advance his appreciation of any communication calling his attention to such lapses.

In the publication of the original fasciculi the writer was favored by the aid of Professor Kyle and Dr. Bevan. Professor Kyle wrote the fasciculus on ** Tumors," and Dr. Bevan the article on " Bacteriology." In the revision of the work both articles have been somewhat enlarged, but the thoroughness of the original has not demanded any extensive revision. There have been made some additions and a rearrangement of subjects, in order to secure greater conformity with the remainder of the

Vlll PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION.

book. In the original, acknowledgment of the assistance was given with the fasciculi ; it is now incorporated here.

Practically, all the added illustrations apjxiar for the first time in a work on pathology in the English language. The source is credited with each cut. Of the original illustrations it is not the author's province to speak. They have been prepared in the writer's laboratory from specimens and slides of which the clinical and pathologic histology were fully known. In this connection the writer wishes to acknowledge the invaluable assistance of Professor H. F. Harris, who personally sujxTintended the execution of most of the original drawings. Miss K. G. Harding, artist, has, with great patience, made the original drawings, often redrawing an illustration a number of times before submitting it for approval.

To Drs. R. C. Rosenherger and W. P. Read the author wishes to acknowledge valuable aid in proof-reading and other detail work in the completion of the volume.

Instead of the usual method of inserting a table of illustrations, arranging the figures in the same order as they appear in the pages, an alphabetic list, by subjects, is inserted, for the arrangement of which I am indebted to Mr. L. H. Prince.

In conclusion, the writer wishes to submit the volume, not as a treatise or book of reference, but. as its title indicates, as a manual that he hoi)es may be useful in the laboratory, postmortem room, and in clinical (lia;j;n(rsis by the aid of the microscope. To attain as fully as ])ossil)le the last-named aim, the chapters on the microscopic examination of tissues, blood, and urine have been most fully illustrated.

Thanking the profession for its kindly reception of the previous edition, this volume is respectfully submitted for consideration.

Introduction

Pathology bears the same relation to a proper study of disease that physiology does to a knowledge of those complicated phenomena the sum total of which is called life. Physiology deals with the normal processes, — the functions of organs and tissues in health, — while pathology is a study of the causes and manifestations accompanying disease. Physiology is the science of normal life ; pathology is the science of abnormal life — disease. It has been said, and quite truly, that pathology is morbid physiology — the physiology of disease. The two subjects demand associated study, as from a knowledge of one is acquired more or less information bearing either directly or indirectly upon the other. A detailed study of the intricate problems of morbid processes, and of the relation^ of tissue change to alteration of function, and a thorough acquaintance with the normal, render at once apparent the intimate association of pathology and physiology.
