Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from British and Colonial Army Surgeons on the 19th of April, 1775: An Address Delivered on the 19th of April, 1899 Before the Middlesex South District Medical Society The cordial invitation to address you on this occasion came to me as a pleasant command. Assuredly, it is the duty of one who has received the high distinction of honorary fellowship in the general society to respond promptly to all demands which the local division may make. Personally I have been inclined to regard my election to honorary membership in the Massachusetts Medical Society a few years ago as a complimentary expression of good will towards a branch of science which was formerly an important and interesting factor in medical education, but which retains at the present time only an insecure hold on the medical schools of English-speaking people. In short, I may consider myself as filling, however unworthily, the office of a connecting link between the past, when botanic gardens played a large part in the life of medical students, and the better present time, when the profession almost without exception regards the culture-tubes of bacteriological laboratories as the only places where vegetable activity can be profitably investigated. It will therefore be expected that I, partaking distinctly of the nature of a survival, should choose my subject from the past. In looking about for a suitable topic, I freed myself wholly from the thought that I could bring anything worthy of your attention from the commonplace reminiscences of my brief medical practice in the early sixties, or from my service as a medical teacher at that time, although these belong unquestionably to ancient history. Then I turned to a theme suggested by the time and place of our meeting here to-day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
