    PREFACE So much interest has centered about the method introduced by Dr. Carrel for the treatment of war wounds that any book embodying his ideas is certain to be of service. This small book was written by Madame Carrel, who has worked at Compiégne and become a most proficient member of that highly trained and techni- cally skilled staff. It was written pri- marily for the information of nurses so that they might have a clear, short account of the various details of the technic, and an accurate description of the apparatus used in carrying it out. The book in no way supplants the more complete ac- count written by Dr. Carrel, The Treat- ment of Infected Wounds.* An effort has been made to keep it simple and direct * Published by Paul B. Hoeber, New York.
