Animal Experimentation and Medical Progress

Abstract

IN America there are very few surgeons more eminent, more beneficent, or more widely beloved than Prof. Keen. He fulfils and represents the very highest traditions of American surgery. He has done great things in practice, and in teaching, and in writing; and his name is held in reverence by doctors and surgeons over here. So, when he writes a book for general reading on a medical subject, the general reader had better read it: especially as it has an introduction from Dr. Charles W. Eliot, sometime president of Harvard University. Besides, the book is admirably written, full of learning, full of sympathy, full of a thousand facts touching man's daily welfare.
