    to enlarge the scope of the work, and to examine more thoroughly the whole subject of Fibroid Diseases of the Lungs. We have, therefore, collated the views to be found in most of the literature upon the subject, and have endeavoured to make the book useful for purposes of reference; based as it is upon an inquiry as searching as possible, and illustrated by a larger number of typical instances of the disease than, we venture to think, has ever before been brought together. Our thanks are due to many who have aided us in the work. We would express our indebtedness to our colleagues at the City of London Hospital for Diseases of the Chest, for the kind way in which they have allowed us to make use of the cases under their care; and to Dr. Barlow for furnishing us with the excellent description of one of the cases figured in the Plates. The very faithful drawings of the microscopic changes in the lung were made by our friend, Dr. H. G. Adamson; and to him, as well as to our friend Dr. Kington Fyffe, who undertook the laborious work of reading the proofs, and made many valuable suggestions, our best thanks are due. W. J. H. A. C. London, September 1894.
