    PREFACE It was originally intended that I should collaborate with my old teacher and friend Mr. Butlin in re- editing his monograph on ' Malignant Disease of the Larynx.' Unfortunately, owing to the great demands on Mr. Butlin's time, this arrangement has been ri,^ found to be impracticable, and it has fallen to my lot to publish this treatise on my own responsi- '' bility. C It is with gratitude that I acknowledge the kindly t> help I have received in my task from Mr. Buthn and Sir Felix Semon, the two foremost authorities in this ^ country on malignant disease of the larynx, ^v One of the main objects of this book is to place S before the profession the views we hold in England ^ as to the correct operative treatment of laryngeal , cancer—views which have not so far been sufficiently / understood or appreciated abroad. ^ If this treatise should contribute towards popu- N larizing the operative treatment as practised so successfully in this country, I feel I shall not altogether have written in vain. 15, Stratford Place, Oxford Street, W.
