Excerpt from Pellagra When just seventeen years ago the author's attention was first particularly directed to pellagra, he was at once struck with the fact that but little attention had been paid to this disease by English writers. Further investigation quickly showed, however, that there is an enormous foreign literature on the subject - in the main Italian - extending backward for almost two centuries. Notwithstanding the great number of articles that have been written on pellagra, a careful inquiry likewise developed the fact that no work aiming at being complete and systematic has appeared on this disease since the publication of Lombroso's well-known treatise in 1892. It is true that this book was translated into German, with some additions, by Kurella in 1898, but even this revised and in some directions enlarged edition of the work by no means included all of value that had been written on the subject. The same criticism applies to the brochure of Marie, published in-1908, which in effect is nothing more than a somewhat abbreviated French translation of Lombroso's treatise. Finding, then, that there was no systematic work that included the results of more modern investigation on pellagra, the author began collecting material with the idea of ultimately writing a monograph that would supply a complete exposition of the knowledge which has so far been obtained upon the subject. It was felt that in order that this object might be achieved it would be highly desirable to secure the writings of both the earlier and more recent investigators, and, although these were not in all instances obtainable, it is scarcely an exaggeration to say that this has been in effect accomplished. Wherever this was possible papers of value on this subject have been carefully read, and abstracts made of everything they contained that seemed important - a task of no small difficulty. That the best judgment has been at all times displayed in the selection of material could not be claimed, and it may be true that there are instances in which opinions, and even the results of investigations, might as well have been omitted. On the other hand it may also be the case that some writers have received inadequate attention, but if this be true, the error has been unintentional. Inasmuch as the author's principal object in writing this monograph was to make accessible to the English reader as complete as resume as possible of the foreign literature on pellagra, it was early recognized that if this hope was to be realized the limits of the volume would forbid anything more than a most cursory reference in this country, and he has been, therefore, constrained to cite briefly the results only of such investigators as appeared to contain matter of exceptional interest.
