In this volume will be found described some of the most recent acquisitions to our knowledge of the neurology of war. But its principal aim is to initiate the medical man who is not a specialist into the examination of nerve injuries. He will quickly learn how to recognise the nervous territory affected, and the development of the various clinical features; he will be in a position to pronounce a precise diagnosis, and to foresee the consequences of this or that lesion.

This volume is the necessary complement of the first. It explains the nature of the lesions, their mode of repair, their prognosis, and above all their treatment. It provides a series of particularly useful data as to the evolution of nerve-wounds—the opportunities of intervention—and the prognosis of immediate complications or late sequelae.
