Autorenporträt
James Campbell Todd (1877–1949) was a prominent pathologist and author, highly regarded for his contributions to clinical pathology. Although not prolific in publishing, his seminal work, 'A Manual of Clinical Diagnosis,' first published in 1917, has been pivotal for both students and practitioners of medicine over several editions. This authoritative text provided comprehensive and practical information for the diagnosis of diseases through clinical laboratory methods. It underscored the importance of understanding hematologic, biochemical, and microbiological tests and their interpretations in clinical scenarios. Todd's manual thereby became an indispensable resource for medical education, reflecting his deep commitment to marrying theoretical expertise with practical application in the medical field. An alumnus of Rush Medical College and the University of Chicago, Todd's career was marked by an unflagging effort to elevate the standards of clinical diagnosis. As a professor of pathology at the University of Colorado and later as the head of the Department of Pathology at the University of Minnesota, he left an indelible mark through his teachings and his book, which underwent multiple revisions to keep pace with the evolving medical sciences. Todd's scholarly style was characterized by clarity, thoroughness, and an emphasis on pathological underpinnings of diseases, traits that have made his manual a time-honored text in medical literature. His contributions have garnered him respect among contemporaries and enduring relevance in the annals of medical education.
