![From the Preface to the First Fdition. This Manual is intended to supply a want I have long felt in my capacity as a teacher of clinical medicine, viz., an introduction to the study of disease of the upper air passages that might serve as a practical guide to students and practitioners, and as a stepping stone to the larger and more comprehensive works, whose very wealth of detail render them less suitable for beo-inners Illustration is essential in describing affections, the diagnosis of which largely depends on the appearances presented, and, with few exceptions' I have reproduced sketches from my clinical notes, believing that they will convey the most accurate idea of the aspects of disease, without elaboration. I am under a sense of deep obligation to Dr. McB ride, and Mr, Young J. Pentland, for per- mission to reproduce Fig. j, Piute IV. \ to Professors Chiari, Emil Zuckerkandl, Dr. Riehl, of Vienna, and to M. Wagnier, of Lille, 1 am similarly indebted ; while I beg also to thank Dr. W. P. Northrup, of New York, Mr. Mark Hovell, the Scientific Press, and others, for the loan of clickds. My especial thanks are due to my friends Dr. James Swain and Dr. Kelly for revising the proof sheets, and to the Publishers for their assistance in preparing the work for the press. P. W. W.
