Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Urology, Vol. 8 The span of twenty years covered by the life of the American Urological Association is unquestionably the most important and far-reaching that will be known in the history of urology. Born at a time when urology was branching Off from the realm Of general medicine and surgery - the actual division becoming necessary through the clarification of the field by precise and accurate methods of study, such study opening up problems connected with each organ Of the genito-urinary tract which re quired for their solution the individed efforts Of individuals - the American Urological Association, built on broad, democratic principles, became a vital factor in the advancement Of the specialty. It has been said that the sound practices of today were but visions the day they were born. Many of the urological problems which had arisen previous to the organization of this association have since developed into sound practices. These were the visions Of internists, pathologists and surgeons; for few men, at that time, had devoted their efforts solely to the study of urology.
