The Transvaal Medical Journal, 1905-1913.
The Transvaal Medical Society, founded in Johannesburg in 1889, started publication of the Transvaal Medical Journal in August 1905. When the Society became the Witwatersrand Division of the Transvaal Branch of the British Medical Association in 1912, the TMJ was continued as the Medical Journal of South Africa from August 1913. During its 8 years' existence, the TMJ's contents reflected the many aspects of private medical practice, hospital cases, talks at medical societies and congresses, and topics of preventive health specifically in Johannesburg; however, items referring to South Africa and overseas were also dealt with. Medical expertise in Johannesburg was revealed as adequate and efficient for those times.
