Book Description
Excerpt from Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Physic, Delivered in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the University of the State of New York All these were so familiar to him, that they were seldom written. The manuscripts would perhaps contain a memorandum here and there that would remind one who had often heard him, of the many striking and learned illustrations he was in the habit of ad ducing - but could not enable the editor entirely to recover them, or to give them with any thing like tolerable accuracy. And then, the manner could not be represented. The Vivid flashes of his keen eye; his fine, manly, commanding voice; his animation of delivery, rising, as it often did, to enthusiasm; and his graceful, powerful gesticulation - all these are gone. N 0 reader can imagine them. He must have heard, and have seen the man, to understand what he was in his lecture room. Certainly, if he had adopted St. Augustine's rule for preaching, as a rule for his prelections, he could not have come nearer the venerable father's standard of perfection. There was in his style or his manner nothing that appeared like the obtuse, deformiter, frigide. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Physic, Vol. 1 of 2 IT was not foreseen by the American contributor to these Lectures, that his additions would have constituted, in a comparatively short period, the larger part of the entire work. His proportion is, now, upwards of fourteen hundred pages - enough, in amount of matter and variety of topic, to form a separate treatise one as large, if not as comprehensive, as some systems of medicine which find willing and instructed readers.

Book Description
Excerpt from Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Physic IN yielding to the wish of the publishers that he would become annotator to the Lectures of Doctor Stokes, and make additions on subjects not included in the course of the distinguished lecturer in the Park Street Medical School, the editor was not unmindful of the responsibility of his task, nor of the comparisons to which his labours would be subjected by critical readers. Mere self-regard would have made him prefer to be the author of a separate work on the Practice of Medicine; in which scope would have been allowed him for various topics necessarily omitted on the present occasion. But he was consoled by the reflexion, that, next to the pleasure of original promulgation of sound precepts Of doctrine and practice by oneself, is that of bearing corroborative testimony to emanations ofthis nature from another person.

Excerpt from d104 Book of a Course of Lectures, on the Theory and Practice of Physic, Vol. 2: For the Use of the Medical Students of Harvard University As 'the first part of this text book relates to the general theory of medicine, this second part may. Be considered as relating to the practice. This distinction 19 made, however, rather 1n reference to the title of the professorship I hold, and to the duties belonging to it, than to the exact character of the two parts of the work. The second palt is represented as relating to practice, because it will describe particular diseases, and the treatment adapted to each; yet it will admit and require many theoretical discussions.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Discourse Introductory to the Course of Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Physic, in Jefferson Medical College: Session MDCCCXXXII-III It is a remarkable fact, that though there is no class of men who have been so much devoted to science in modern times as the members of our profession, yet in none of the physical sciences has the inductive philosophy been admitted with more reluctance than in medicine. Apollo was formerly the God of physicians as well as poets - and it will be admitted that none of his worshippers offered more abundant gifts Upon his altars, or performed their prostrations with more zeal and devotion - But the spirit Of the inductive philosophy has at length arisen, and, with an unsparing hand and homely good sense, brought about a medical reformation. The consequence has been, that the altars of the false God have been thrown down, and his image trampled in the dust, and the temple of nature and the spirit of truth substituted in their place. From this' altar, every offering of the imagination is rejected: its motto is, Observation and experiment. The maxims of the inductive philosophy have been-more and more strictly adhered to in anatomy, physiology, and several departments of surgery. The brilliant discoveries of the circulation of the blood; of the structure and functions of the lymphatics; the magnificent investigations of Mr. C. Bell on the anatomy and Offices of the nervous system; and the astonishing results of modern operative surgery, are among the glorious fruits of this mode Of philosophizing. In medicine, from various causes, the progress has been slower. The greatest obscurity necessarily pervades all living processes.
