Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Treatment of Internal Diseases: For Physicians and Students Professor Ortner has so extensively altered the fifth edition of his popular book upon the treatment of internal diseases that it has been necessary to revise completely and reset the translation for the second English edition. Professor Fronz, of Vienna, has entirely rewritten and so very strikingly improved the chapters upon children´s diseases. Dr. Bartlett has translated the German text into idiomatic English, and, without losing the spirit or the details of the original, he has materially condensed the work. The scope of the book is indicated in its title. The author initiates the reader into as much of the pathological physiology of the diseases discussed as bears upon their rational treatment. He very properly emphasizes throughout the volume the importance of the mechanical, dietetic, climatic, hydrotherapeutic, and other extra-medicinal methods, with judicious reasons for those selected, and follows these with a discussion of the applicability of certain drugs, their respective advantages, disadvantages, and limitations, adds useful prescriptions from his own experience and that of others, and leaves the reader better armed to meet etiological indications and the various contingencies which arise and require symptomatic treatment. The prescriptions have been altered to conform to the American Pharmacopoeia, and the equivalents in the English scale of measures have been added to the metric quantities. In this new edition there are a number of changes in the prescriptions and in the indications and recommendations for modern drugs. The editor has endeavored to comply with the suggestions of the Council of Pharmacy and Chemistry, of the American Medical Association, and so has omitted those drugs recommended by the author which have not been sanctioned by this body. All temperatures have been transposed into the Fahrenheit scale. The references in climatology, hygiene, and dietetics have been adapted to the needs of the American student and practitioner. The medicinal waters recommended by the author have been tabulated, and to them have been added tables of the corresponding and most important American waters. Some of the lists of drugs have also been arranged in tables convenient for ready reference. Numerous American sanatoria for patients with tuberculosis have been mentioned. Copious notes (inserted in brackets, [ ]) have been added to contribute further therapeutic resources from authoritative American and English clinicians, as well as to illustrate differences in opinion. The editor has also rewritten several sections and added a chapter upon the treatment of neurasthenia. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
