Hospital practice had long familiarised us with the vascular wounds of civil practice, and the experiments of the Val-de-Grâce School of Medicine had shown us what the wounds of the blood-vessels caused by modern projectiles would be in the next war. But in 1914 these data lacked the ratification of extensive practice. Two years have elapsed, and we have henceforth solid foundations on which to establish our treatment. In a first part, Professor Sencert examines the wounds of the great vessels in general; in a second part he rapidly surveys the wounds of vascular trunks in particular, insisting on the problems of operation to which they give rise. _The cost of postage per volume is: Inland 5d.; Abroad 8d._ LONDON: UNIVERSITY OF LONDON PRESS, LTD., 18, WARWICK SQUARE, E.C.4 MILITARY MEDICAL MANUALS GLASGOW HERALD: "The whole series is heartily commended to the attention and study of all who are interested in and responsible for the treatment of the injuries and diseases of a modern war."

With 112 illustrations in the text. Price 6/- net This new work, like all books by the same author, is a vital and personal work, conceived with a didactic intention. At a time when all physicians are dealing, or will shortly have to deal, with the after-effects of wounds received in war, the question of sequelae presents itself, and will present itself more and more. What has become--and what will become--of all those who, in the hospitals at the front or in the rear, have hastily received initial treatment, and what is to be done to complete a treatment often inaugurated under difficult circumstances?
