STUDENTS' AIDS SERIES. AIDS ΤΟ DIAGNOSIS PART III-WHAT TO ASK BY J. MILNER FOTHERGILL, M. D., M. R. C. P. NEW YORK PREFACE. WHEN the student first sees patients by himself, he is often at a loss what questions to put, and how to put them. He has read his text-book honestly-can write a description of a disease very fairly-but when brought face to face with it scarcely knows how to proceed so as to get at one feature after another seriatim. He is specially troubled with the interrogation of a patient as to what he feels; yet a subjective sensation is often the clue to the correct interpretation of the symptoms presented. This little work is an attempt to help him in this matter. Imperfect it must necessarily be; but if it helps him on his way to educate himself, it is not quite worthless. |
