    The approbation bestowed on my mode of investigating the diseases of menstruation has been to me an additional motive to use every endeavour to perfect the work according to the original plan. I may say the same of the treatise on the diseases of the ovaries, and in re-writing it, I have had the satisfaction of being able to show that the main points, which were affirmed by me in previous editions, had been confirmed by high authorities at home and abroad. In treating of Uterine Inflammation, I have had princi- pally in view the pathology of the body of the womb, which is so important and so little understood, that it imperatively calls for further researches. If I have only been partially successful in attempting to unravel the obscurities that beset the study of internal metritis, I hope the difficulties of the undertaking may be pleaded in extenuation of my imperfec- tions, and that my exertions may be useful in stimulating fellow-labourers to give the subject all the attention that it so well deserves. 60, Grosvenoe-steeet, May, 1862.
