The author, drawing on years of experience on the battlefield, decries amputation of limbs as a kneejerk, impulsive measure more often than not destined to failure. Instead, the book documents how even severely damaged limbs could be saved through a combination of patience, innovative techniques, and a focus on hygiene. The ideas presented in this book were pivotal to changing the practice of surgery forever and remain salient for modern medicine. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
