    PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. This volume, as its title indicates, is designed as a guide in the treatment of cases of emergency occurring in medi- cal, surgical, or obstetrical practice. I have endeavored to combine, in a narrow compass, all the important subjects, giving special prominence to points of practical import in preference to theoretical considerations, and, with the re- sults of my own personal observation, uniting the latest views of European and American authorities.
