Manual of the Discovery, Manufacture, and Administration of Nitrous Oxide, or Laughing Gas: In Its Relations to Dental or Minor Surgical Operations, ... Extraction of Teeth (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Manual of the Discovery, Manufacture, and Administration of Nitrous Oxide, or Laughing Gas: In Its Relations to Dental or Minor Surgical Operations, and Particularly for the Painless Extraction of Teeth

The object in writing this little work is to endeavor to supply a want long felt to exist in the literature of the subject. The necessity of a plain and practical manual on the manufacture and administration of nitrous oxide has been apparent to all who have used this agent.

The preparation of a book of this character has been undertaken by the author, under tho supposition that a very extended experience with nitrous oxide would enable him to present a guide that would necessarily be productive of good results.

The intention has not been to make this a strictly scientific essay.
