Excerpt from Menstruation and Its Disorders It is probably not an exaggeration to say that we have learned more con cerning the nature and mechanism of the menstrual phenomenon during the past fifteen or twenty years than during many centuries preceding. This new knowledge has been an important factor in the more intelligent treatment of the disorders of menstruation, which constitute a not inconsiderable pro portion of the ailments encountered by every general practitioner. The gynecologist and the obstetrician likewise have been given a new light on many hitherto poorly understood problems, by such modern contributions as, for example, that pertaining to the menstrual histology of the endometrium, or that dealing with the endocrine relationships of the ovary. It would seem, therefore, that the time is opportune for the presentation of a volume devoted to all aspects of the subject of menstruation, both normal and abnormal. SO far as I know, there is no other work in any language with exactly this scope. This statement, I believe, will apply even to the rather comprehensive articles in some of the German handbooks. While the present volume is monographic in character, every effort has been made to make it of genuinely practical value, to general practitioners as well as to specialists in gynecology and obstetrics. The surgical treatment of the various forms of pelvic disease which may be associated with disturbances of menstruation has not been considered, for this would mean the inclusion, to all intents and purposes, of a treatise on operative gynecology. For the sake of completeness, however, it has seemed best to include a discussion of certain matters of merely historic interest.
