Excerpt from Selected Monographs: Raynaud's Two Essays on Local Asphyxia, Klebs and Crudeli on the Nature of Malaria, Machiafava and Celli on the Origin of Melanaemia, Neugebauer on Spondyl-Olisthesis To describe a new disease, and especially to give a new name to a group of symptoms which has been long observed and described, is assuredly less difficult than to link together under a common law which dominates them many affections apparently different. In the infinite variety of morbid phenomena which present them selves daily to our observation with a physiognomy always new, it is easy to choose here and there some exceptional facts and to constitute them a common type, omitting the differences which separate them in order to see only the points of contact between them. A little imagination suffices for this task, and positive science has little to profit by it. Also, in spite of the title which I have given to this thesis, I am bound to declare at the outset that I do not aspire to the frivolous and dangerous honour of making an innovation in pathology. My ambition would be rather to demonstrate that certain facts of gangrene of the extremities which one meets at long intervals in practice, and of which the strange appearance is apt to disconcert the most skilful, are in reality much less singular than one would be tempted to believe, and can be connected by intermediate steps with other facts much more common, and which only escape attention by their everyday occurrence. Unfortunately words have, in nosology, an importance of which it would be useless to attempt to deprive them.
