Foreword
NOTE: This foreword of the 16th Edition of THE MERCK MANUAL contains
page references not applicable to the book card.
It has been 93 years since THE MERCK MANUAL first appeared in 1899 as a
slender 262-page text titled MERCK’S MANUAL OF THE MATERIA MEDICA.
It was expressly designed to meet the needs of general practitioners in selecting
medications, noting that “memory is treacherous” and that even the most thoroughly informed physician needs a reminder “to make him at once master of the
situation and enable him to prescribe exactly what his judgment tells him is needed
for the occasion.” It was well received and, by the 6th Edition (1934), THE
MERCK MANUAL had become highly valued by medical students and house staff
as well; by the end of World War II the pocket-sized manual was an established favorite ready—reference book. Today THE MANUAL is the most widely used
medical text in the world. While the book has grown to about 2800 pages, its primary purpose remains the same—to provide useful clinical information to practicing physicians, medical students, interns, residents, and other health care
professionals.
Fewer physicians now attempt to manage the whole range of medical disorders that
can occur in infants, children, and adults, but those who do must have available a
broad spectrum of current and accurate information. Specialists require precise information about subjects outside their areas of expertise. All physicians need more
and more information for study and examination purposes, as well as for patient
care. Keeping up with the rapid and extraordinary advances in cellular and molecular biology, molecular genetics, and medical technology is more challenging that
ever, but THE MERCK MANUAL continues to try to meet these needs, excluding
only details of surgical procedures.
Precisely how to we attempt to meet these needs? First, from a disease orientation,
THE MANUAL covers all but the most obscure disorders of mankind, not only
4
Foreword
those that a general internist might expect to encounter but also problems associated with pregnancy and delivery; common and serious disorders of neonates, infants, and children; and many special situations. Disorders are organized mainly
according to the organ systems primarily affected, on the basis of their etiology (as
with most of the infectious diseases and disorders due to physical agents), or on
the basis of disciplines (e.g., gynecology, obstetrics, pediatrics, genetics, psychiatry). In addition, THE MANUAL contains information for special circumstances,
such as radiation reactions and injuries, problems encountered in deep-sea diving,
and dental emergencies. The entire book is updated for each new edition, and new
subjects are added, such as discussions of genetic evaluation and counseling, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in children, sports medicine, hospice
medicine, cross-cultural issues in medicine, anabolic steroid abuse, and special
considerations in performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on infants and children. This edition has 140 more pages of text (approximately 5%) than the preceding edition. We therefore urge you to check the Index whenever you need
information, even on unusual subjects or those not commonly found in other texts.
A completely disease-oriented compendium, however, would have serious limitations. Since patients usually present with complaints or concerns that must be meticulously described, sorted, and deciphered, many chapters are devoted to
discussions of symptoms and signs and of how to elicit the historical and physical
data required for diagnosis. Common clinical procedures and laboratory tests used
as diagnostic and management aids are described, with emphasis on their indications, contraindications, and possible complications. New and sophisticated laboratory and technologic procedures are also described, with comments on their
uses, interpretations, and limitations.
Current therapy is presented for each disorder and supplemented with a separate
section on clinical pharmacology that describes general principles, new advances,
5
Foreword
(e.g., the role of drug receptors, plasma concentration monitoring), and details of
pharmacologic groups and specific agents; it even discusses the uses of placebos.
The use of complex equipment (e.g., respirators) is also described. Prophylaxis is
emphasized wherever possible. Finally, reference guides are provided for checking
normal values, for calculating dosages, and for converting weights, measures, and
volumes to metric equivalents.
Can so many subjects by adequately covered in a single book? You, the reader,
must be the ultimate judge, but we believe the answer is in the affirmative. This
edition required a concerted effort by many people, beginning with an internal
analysis and critique of the previous edition, even though it enjoyed highly favorable reviews and outstanding reader acceptance. Sections of that book were then
sent to outside experts who had had nothing to do with its preparation, to solicit
their most candid criticism. Published reviews and letters from readers were analyzed. Next, the Editorial Board met to compare reviews and critiques and to plan
this 16th Edition. Distinguished special consultants were enlisted to provide additional expertise. Then, 290 authors with outstanding qualifications, experience,
and knowledge were engaged. Their manuscripts were painstakingly edited by our
in-house staff to retain every valuable morsel of knowledge while eliminating
sometimes elegant but unneeded words. Each manuscript was then reviewed by a
member of the Editorial Board or a consultant. In many cases, additional special
reviewers were invited to comment. Every mention of a drug and its dosage was
reviewed by still another outside consultant. The objective of all these reviews was
to ensure accuracy, adequate and relevant coverage of each subject, and simple and
clean exposition. The authors then reworked, modified, and polished their manuscripts. Almost all of the manuscripts were revised at least 6 times; 15 to 20 revisions were not uncommon. We believe that no other medical text undergoes as
many reviews and revisions as THE MERCK MANUAL does.
6
Foreword
Owing to the extensive subject matter covered and to a successful tradition, the
style and organization of THE MANUAL have some unique characteristics. Readers are urged to spend a few minutes reviewing the Guide for Readers (p. viii), the
Table of Contents at the beginning of each section (indicated by a thumb tab), and
the Index (p. 2717). Scrutiny of the arrangement of subject headings within each
section, of internal headings within a subject discussion, and of boldfaced terms in
the text will reveal a pattern of outlining intended to aid study of the text.
The foregoing description is a simplified review of the complex and arduous but
rewarding 5-year enterprise that culminated in the presentation of the 16th Edition
of THE MERCK MANUAL. The members of the Editorial Board, special consultants, contributing authors, and in-house staff and their affiliations are listed on the
pages that follow. They deserve a degree of gratitude that cannot adequately be expressed here, but we know they will feel sufficiently rewarded if their efforts serve
your needs.
We hope this edition of THE MERCK MANUAL will be a welcome aid to you,
our readers—compatible with your needs and worthy of frequent use. Suggestions
for improvements will be warmly welcomed and carefully considered
