Excerpt from Diseases of Women: A Manual of Gynecology Designed for the Use of Osteopathic Students and PractitionersBeing the first attempt to put in book form any systematic explanation of the subject as practiced and taught by osteopaths, I would beg you to over look mistakes and the various faults that usually accompany the first writing on any new subject, namely, crudeness and incompleteness.I have arranged the subject matter into para graphs that are numbered and headed with bold type. This is of advantage for teaching and refer ence, in that it conveniently divides the different subjects, making it easier to find any special subject that is wanted.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
