Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Treatment of Skin Cancers N the following pages I have endeavored to give a succinct account of the cancerous process as it affects the external integument of the body. The modern theories of its nature, causation, and' pathology have been briefly dwelled upon; but os pecial stress has been laid upon the two points which are after all the only essential ones for us, its recogni tion and treatment. Whilst none Of the important therapeutic measures that are emmoyed are neglected, I have elaborated more especially the caustic method, which is the one that experience has commended to me. It is my hope that what I have written may do something towards taking this most eligible method Of treating cutaneous carcinomata out of the hands Of unauthorized practitioners, and placing it where it belongs, at the disposal Of the profession at large.
