    AMERICAN PUBLISHERS' PREFACE. In presenting to the medical profession the third American edition of Dr. Xettleship's Guide to Diseases of the Eye, the publishers desire to state that no pains have been spared to place it in every particular upon a level with the latest developments of the specialty of which it treats. In addition to a most thorough and careful revision by the author, comprising many important changes and additions, there has been inserted the chapter from the previous edition upon the Detection of Color-blindness from the pen of Dr. William Thomson, whose painstaking investigations upon this subject are widely known, and his methods generally adopted for the examination of railroad employes. Every care has been taken with the typography, and in all respects the publishers feel assured that the work will be found to merit in an increased degree the confidence awarded by the profession to the previous editions. Philadelphia, 1887.
