Explore a concise, systematic study of the fluids that shape health and disease. This early-19th-century work surveys blood and humours to reveal how their changes drive illness.
The book presents a two-part view of the human fluids. It first details the morbid qualities of the fluids, such as abnormal fluidity, acrimony, and putrescence. It then considers the morbid quantity of the fluids, notably the doctrine of plethora, and how quantity and quality together influence disease.

Excerpt from An Inaugural Dissertation on the Pathology of the Human Fluids
All the disorders of the fluids, considered in themselves, have a reference either to their quantity or their quality. The subject matter of these pages has, accordingly, been arranged under two general divisions: the first of which embraces the morbid qualities of the fluids. These, again, may be comprised under three heads; morbid fluidity, acrimony, and putrescency. The second relates to the morbid quantity of the fluids; under which head are considered the doctrines of Plethora.

Sir,
To you I dedicate the following Dissertation. With much pleasure I embrace the present opportunity of acknowledging the obligations, which have arisen from a long and faithful course of instruction, imparted to me in your private medical school; and most cheerfully do I thus make public those feelings of gratitude and personal regard which I have ever cherished since the relationship of preceptor and pupil has existed between us. But, independent of these considerations, I know no one to whom with so much propriety these pages can be inscribed as to you.
