    PREFACE TO SECOND EDITION. The object of this small volume is to offer to the reader information which, if to be found at all in ordinary works of medicine, is so scattered as not to be readily available; while some of its contents are suggestions derived from the experience of the author, or placed at his disposal by personal friends who have been engaged in the study of questions connected with life insurance. Being intended to serve as a handy book and to be essentially of a practical character, it would have been out of place to have attempted to embrace a full disquisition of the numerous interesting topics to which it adverts. When fuller information on any purely medical question is desired, recourse to standard works will be necessary; but it is hoped that no topic has been omitted to which the medical adviser’s attention should be specially directed in connection with life insurance.
