The Address in Surgery: Delivered Before the British Medical Association at Torquay, 1860 (1860) is a book written by Philip Chilwell De La Garde. The book is a transcript of a speech that De La Garde gave before the British Medical Association in Torquay in 1860. The speech focuses on surgical techniques and advancements in the field of surgery, particularly in the areas of anesthesia and antiseptics. De La Garde discusses the importance of cleanliness and hygiene in surgical procedures, and the use of antiseptics to prevent infection. He also discusses the use of anesthesia in surgery, and the different types of anesthesia that were available at the time. The book provides an interesting insight into the state of surgery in the mid-19th century, and the challenges that surgeons faced in performing successful operations. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine and surgery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
