Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from On the Decline of Life in Health and Disease: Being an Attempt to Investigate the Causes of Longevity; And the Best Means of Attaining a Healthful Old Age The celebrated Heberden remarked, that the life of a physician should be like that of a vestal virgin, which was divided into three periods; in the first of which she learned her profession, in the second she practised it, and in the third she, also, taught it to others. I have certainly passed through the first and second of these periods: after several years employed in the study of my profession, I have spent thirty-five years in the practice of it, and, anxious to fulfil completely my vocation, I desire before I quit the stage to strike one blow for the good cause, to do something, however slight, to improve the sanatory condition of mankind, to alleviate pain, and oppose the influence of disease. I cannot hope, strictly speaking, "to teach my profession to others." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
