Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Passages: From the Diary of a Late Physician The first chapter of these ´Passages from the Diary of a late Physician´ appeared in Blackwood´s Magazine in August, 1830, and the last in August, 1837. The first separate publication of them, in two volumes! took place in 1832, between which period and the present, four very large impressions of them have been exhausted; and it is a great satisfaction, both to my publisher and myself, to find that this has been effected without having, in any way, had recourse to the modern system of puffing; that miserable source of the degradation of literature. A fifth edition having been called for, is accompanied by the Third Volume, which contains all the chapters that have since made their appearance in Blackwood´s Magazine. As it lately became necessary, in the course of Chancery proceedings instituted by Mr. Blackwood against parties who had pirated considerable portions of this work, that I should make oath of the fact of my being the sole author of it; and as it has been, both at home and abroad, long confidently attributed to other people - I now repeat the statement, that I am the sole author of every portion of the work, and, in deference to the wishes of my family, place my name, as such author, upon the title-page. It is not necessary to trouble the reader with the reasons that induced me so long to abstain from doing so. To account for any appearance of familiarity with medical details in this work, I may add that I was for six years actively engaged in the practical study of physic - a profession, however, which I quitted in the month of September, 1827.
