Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Contributions to Pediatrics, Vol. 1 To My Readers - If there be any - I desire to give an explanation of, or an apology for, the appearance of these volumes. For many years friends have encouraged me to write my memoirs. They claimed that the Parcæ had not cut the thread of my life only to give me an opportunity to report what I had observed in connection with the history of the profession of the country in a medical practice extending over almost sixty years, as a public teacher of medicine during forty-five years, and a member and an officer in many local, national and international associations. That may be true, but as a memoir writer I have not succeeded in being prolific beyond a few chapters which, with others, may or may not reach the eyes of my friends, and enemies, for a long time to come, if at all. A very good reason for that is intelligible to every New Yorker. We have no time for anything but work; the luxury of leisure we do not possess; and pleasure is enjoyed only, or mostly, by those who find pleasure in work. So no memoirs could be written, on account of constant, and constantly pressing work. Pegasus wears no harness, and I, like most of you, have always been in harness. Whether that was always an enjoyment or a benefit to others, I cannot tell you. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
