Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Materia Medica and Therapeutics To offer to the medical profession a new treatise on Materia Medica and Therapeutics may appear to be a labor of supererogation. The medical literature of this country is already well provided with able and elaborate works on this subject. The learned and encyclopedic volumes of Stille, based on the empirical method, and the modern and scientific work of H. C. Wood, based on the physiological method, leave almost nothing to be desired. Entertaining such a profound respect for the work of my American colleagues, it may well be inquired why I have ventured to add a new book to those already existing in this department of medical knowledge. A belief, which I trust will not be regarded as egotism, that I have earned the right to address the medical profession, has moved me to the preparation of this work. Several years a teacher of Materia Medica and Therapeutics, I have necessarily formed opinions as to the kind of information which should be contained in a treatise on this subject. As far as such a course of experiment is practicable, I have demonstrated in my lectures the actions of remedies on animals. I have conducted in my private laboratory many independent investigations, and have contributed in this way, I submit with diffidence, some original knowledge to the subject of therapeutics. The information thus acquired has been supplemented by twenty-two years of clinical experience as a practitioner of medicine. Under these circumstances, I am induced to believe that my professional brethren, and medical students, will hold that I am entitled to a hearing. A volume on Materia Medica and Therapeutics should, in these days, present some new features of importance if it would worthily occupy a place alongside of the excellent works now accessible to American readers.
