不幸的是，富尔德博士的书没有。这是对物理体征的高效、熟练的审查，一个系统一个系统，并设法涵盖除此之外的许多其他内容，以便为它们的解释提供必要的背景。它给人一种基于多年执业医师经验的百科全书式知识的印象。但它乏味、重点不均匀、在许多地方不准确和过时，而且英语也并非总是无可非议的。文本也由很长的段落组成，有时甚至超过一页，没有图表（整本书中只有一个）或插图。这本书应该有一个无情的编辑和一个更慷慨的出版商，尽管人们可以同情后者试图压低价格。我的书到达时书脊就裂开了，这是一本为口袋设计的书的糟糕广告。
Unfortunately Dr. Fuld's book has not. It is an efficient, workmanlike review of physical signs, system by system, and manages to cover much else besides so as to provide the necessary background for their interpretation. It gives an impression of encyclopaedic knowledge based on many years' experience as a practising physician. But it is dull and uneven in emphasis, inaccurate and out of date in a number of places, and the English is not always beyond reproach. The text too is made up of long paragraphs, sometimes extending to more than a page, unrelieved by diagrams (there is one only in the whole book) or illustrations. The book should have had a ruthless editor and a more generous publisher, though onecan sympathize with the latter in trying to keep the price down. My copywas split along the spine on arrival, a poor advertisement for a book designed for the pocket.
