About this book
Written for senior students, house surgeons, and junior practitioners, Joseph Bell's handbook presents operative surgery as a practical subject to be learned through close anatomical study. His preface explains the aim: a compact selection of useful procedures, with detailed accounts of their performance and references to other surgeons' methods. The fifth edition, dated 1883, carries illustrations and diagrams that accompany this teaching purpose.
The contents move from the treatment of arteries and limb operations to procedures involving joints, eyes, the face, air passages, and other parts of the body. In the middle excerpt, Bell discusses blocked tear passages and describes the reasoning behind Mr. Bowman's operation, comparing its approach with earlier treatments.
