Excerpt from The Treatment of Infantile Paralysis It is to meet the situation just described that this book has been written and it is concerned wholly with treatment except for a short introductory chapter dealing with other aspects of the disease in their bearing on treatment. This limitation was adopted because my experience has been chiefly in this depart ment and because conditions are not yet sufficiently settled with regard to pathology, etiology, transmission, etc., to make it possible to write a book with any promise of permanence which should deal with the whole subject.

In this section my personal experience is responsible for my comments on the rela tive value of the different Operations.
