This book is of great historical interest. Its author, who was one of the world's best-known ophthalmologists, died in 1929, at the age of 85. He collected the literature on Graves's disease, or, as the Germans prefer to call it, Basedow's disease, covering the period from 1722 to 1909. It will be extremely valuable to all those who wish an exhaustive treatise on this disease, and of special interest to ophthalmologists concerned with the ocular manifestations of Graves's disease.
