"Surgery, with Special Reference to Podiatry" by Maximilian Stern and Edward Adams is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a guide to surgical practices specifically pertinent to podiatry, addressing various morbid conditions related to the foot and their surgical treatment. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the theory and application of surgeries relevant to chiropody, making it valuable for both practitioners and students in the field. The opening of this treatise outlines the book's intent and scope, emphasizing the significance of understanding the underlying physiological and pathological processes related to foot surgery. It differentiates surgery from general medicine, categorizing surgical conditions into injuries, infections, and diseases, and highlights the importance of asepsis and antisepsis in surgical practice. The authors detail foundational concepts such as tissue composition, the immune response to bacterial invasion, and the essential role of manual procedures in treating foot ailments, setting the stage for the in-depth topics that will follow in subsequent chapters.
