Conversations from PG rooms1 are not recounts of actual conversations. They do reflect sentiments of actual doctors, and they discuss actual events and real patient encounters. The text is indented and appears in a different typeface from the main text, to distinguish it from the rest. Where facts about specific contexts are important in understanding the conversations, those facts are presented in text boxes, and references are provided. Historical sources have been used to reconstruct conversations in some instances, and the sources have been cited wherever the case arises. In a few instances, the actual names of patients have been replaced to protect their privacy.
