Excerpt from An Index of Surgery: Being a Concise Classification of the Main Facts and of Surgery, for the Use of Sensor Students and Others

If the student knew that there was a short book acces sible, containing the main facts and theories of surgery put concisely, classified and arranged in due order, and without superfluous explanation, he would be able to really study his familiar text-book up to the last month before his examination, relying upon such a short book to give form to any knowledge which then remained nebulous in his mind.

Excerpt from An Index of Surgery: Being a Concise Classification of the Main Facts and of Surgery, for the Use of Sensor Students and Others

This book is intended to be read by the senior student shortly before he goes in for his final examination, and after he has carefully studied a complete text-book of surgery. When I was about to present myself at the final examination for the Fellowship of the College of Surgeons, I felt the need of some such work. I had read not only more than one manual, but several special treatises and various essays. I had had at least ordinary opportunities of practical work, and I do not think I had wasted them. But I had made no complete series of surgical notes, nor could I possibly have made such a series without having unduly narrowed my reading or trespassed on the time spent in the hospital wards. And this very narrowing, still more this very trespassing, would have made me unqualified to make a good notebook at all. For, to make good notes, one should have some practical experience and some breadth of view. How many men have had to put aside as useless the notes once laboriously made, but made with unripe knowledge, and with the bad judgment which such immaturity implies!

I am not dissuading students from taking notes while reading. The practice is highly to be commended for various reasons; for instance, it rivets the attention - an essential part of memory - and it frequently results in a note-book of high value, well worth reperusal. But the more honestly that note-book is made, the more likely will the student be to find the examination drawing swiftly near and his reading creeping along but slowly. He feels compelled to desert his note-book, and frequently his text-book too. He either skims on to the end of the latter, haste and anxiety preventing him from thoughtfully studying it, or he leaves it altogether for the smallest "Introduction" to surgery in the language.
