[Transcriber’s Notes]
Thanks to Carol Presher of Timeless Antiques, Valley, Alabama, for lending the original book for this production. The 140 year old binding had disintegrated, but the paper and printing was in amazingly good condition, particularly the multicolor images.
Thanks also to the Mayo Clinic. This book has increased my appreciation of their skilled care of my case by showing the many ways that things could go wrong.
Footnotes are indicated by “[Footnote]” where they appear in the text. The body of the footnote appears immediately following the complete paragraph. If more than one footnote appears in the same paragraph, they are numbered.
A few obvious misspellings have been corrected. Several cases of alternate spelling of the same(?) word have not been modified.
Pages have been reorganized to avoid splitting sentences and paragraphs. Each image is inserted immediately following its description.
Some of the plates did not fit on the scanner and were captured as two separate images. The merged images show some artifacts of the merge process due to slightly different lighting of the page. The contrast and gamma values have been adjusted to restore the images.
In this HTML format the images have been resized to fit on smaller displays. Each image is also a link to the original size version. Click on the image to see the original.
