At first sight it may appear strange that a volume of Progress in
Pediatric Surgery should be devoted to the history of our
specialty. One assumes that progress is concerned primarily with
recent developments whilst history deals with matters of the past.
However, in the past there has also been considerable progress in
the development of our understand ing of paediatric surgical
problems, otherwise we would not have pro gressed to our present
achievements. The editors, therefore, do not apologize for
compiling this volume but, on the contrary, feel that the
publication of this volume is most timely. Modern paediatric
surgery has now been practised for three genera tions. The handful
of pioneers who were the founders of our specialty worked mainly
before the last world war. A few dozen of the inter mediary
generation started work immediately after the war, while the new
generation who are now dominating our specialty must be counted in
thousands. Two factors have radically altered paediatric surgery as
practised by the intermediary and the present generation of
surgeons."
