Excerpt from A System of Surgery, Vol. 1 of 5: Theoretical and Practical in Treatise by Various Authors, With Illustrations; General Pathology The object of this book is to unite into a complete sys tem the opinions and experience of many men, most of them Hospital Surgeons in London, and most of them writing on subjects of their own choice. As each subject must be treated with something of the completeness of a monograph, the work must necessarily be voluminous; but both Contributors and Editor have done their best to present each essay in as moderate a compass as the topic would allow. Where so many men unite in writing on parts of one great subject, it is hardly possible to avoid some differences of opinion; but none of much import ance will, it is hoped, be detected in the following pages, and certainly none which can destroy the uniformity of the teaching.

Excerpt from American Practice of Surgery, Vol. 5 of 8: A Complete System of the Science and Art of Surgery, by Representative Surgeons of the United States and Canada Anatomical Peculiarities. - T he scalp presents many anatomical peculiarities with a marked surgical bearing. It is composed of three chief layers of tissue' the Skin, the fronto - occipital muscle with its aponeurosis, the galea, and finally the periosteum or pericranium. These three are bound together by two layers of areolar tissue. That which binds the skin to the occipito-frontalis muscle and the galea is in the main dense and firm; only over the forehead, lower tem poral and lower occipital regions does one find the skin loose and movable upon the underlying parts. On the other hand, the areolar tissue between periosteum and galea is loose-meshed to such a degree that the scalp as a whole is freely movable upon the underlying bone.
