A Practical Treatise on Diseases of the Eye.

·1887·Journal of the American Medical Association

Abstract

Dr. Meyer's book is so generally recommended and employed in Germany and France that it is considered the student's text book "par excellence." It has gone through several French and German editions, has been translated into Spanish, Polish, Russian, Italian and Japanese languages. We are indebted to Dr. Fergus for an English translation, which lies before us. Its general arrangement does not differ materially from that usually adhered to by text-book writers. Every subject is discussed in a clear and concise manner. The work is abreast of the times. Its value is enhanced by the truly excellent wood cuts, which greatly assist in elucidating the text. We do not hesitate in prophesying that the hope expressed by the author will be realized, that "the English edition will prove useful, and find tavor with English-speaking confrères and students on both sides of the Atlantic."

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
