About the Book Books on cancer consider the group of diseases that result in abnormal cell growth that ultimately invades and spreads through other parts of the body. This behavior contrasts with that of benign tumors, which do not spread to other parts of the body. The potential signs and symptoms of cancer include the appearance of a lump, abnormal bleeding, prolonged cough, unexplained weight loss and a change in bowel movements.

Thomas McCrae was born on December 16, 1870 at Guelph, Ont. , Canada, and was the eldest son of Scottish parents, Col. David McCrae and Janet Eckford, and a brother of the pathologist John McCrae, author of "In Flanders Fields. "
McCrae was educated in Canadian schools, receiving from the University of Toronto the degree of A. B. in 1891 and that of M. B. in 1895. While pursuing his undergraduate medical studies, he was fellow in biology. In 1899 he was a graduate student in Germany at the University of Göttingen, and in 1903 he received the degree of M. D. from the University of Toronto. From 1912 to the time of his death in 1935 he was professor of medicine at Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, and was visiting physician to Jefferson and also to the Pennsylvania Hospital.
Attracted to Baltimore by his distinguished fellow countryman, William Osler, he became assistant resident physician at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, 1896-1901, resident physician, 1901-04, and associate in medicine, 1904-12. He was a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London and in 1924 was Lumleian Lecturer, speaking on the clinical features of foreign bodies in the bronchi. In 1934 he was elected a foreign honorary member of the Association of Physicians of Great Britain and Ireland; only a few foreign physicians have been thus honored. Osler called upon McCrae for aid in the many revisions of his textbook The Principles and Practice of Medicine. In the last year of Osler's life (1919), McCrae was made joint author and continued the book through several editions until his own death in 1935. During the First World War he was lieutenant-colonel in the Canadian Army Medical Corps and head of the medical service of a Canadian general hospital. Before his death, an obscure nervous malady developed with disturbance of sensation and motility, though he continued to make his ward rounds in the hospital in a wheel chair. At autopsy, varicosities of the veins within the spinal canal from the upper cervical region downward were described as the cause of pressure upon the nerve structures. Thickenings in the strands of the cauda equina were also observed. During life the tentative diagnosis of multiple neuritis had been made. He died in Philadelphia and was buried in Dundas.

a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London, member of the Association of Physicians of Great Britain and Ireland
He was a serious student, an able teacher, and a consultant practitioner who inspired confidence. As a writer he is best known for his articles on typhoid fever and arthritis deformans which appeared in Modern Medicine, the seven-volume system that appeared under the joint editorship of Osler and McCrae (1907 - 10). He wrote also several articles bearing upon the history of medicine and was an associate editor of the Annals of Medical History from 1921 until his death.
McCrae was married on September 16, 1908, to Amy Gwyn of Dundas, Ont. , a niece of Osler; they had no children.
