Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Compendium of the Principles and Practice of Medicine

Long personal experience as to the wants of the busy practitioner, and the devoted student, convinces the author that a work of reference is indispensable. A compend, in a compact and tangible form containing the proper knowledge of a purely practical nature, is a desirable addition to any medical library. The active physician is often at a loss to know in what direction to look for such facts and suggestions as are here collected. Some are scattered through voluminous treatises, or in many instances are found only in the — to him — inaccessible pages of medical periodicals. The precepts and hints offered for guidance will, it is believed, supply often and urgent need. Students, in attempting to take notes, as all should, are hurried along the current of lectures, and often seize upon unimportant remarks, instead of the essential facts to be retained. Notes taken by different students often compare strangely; to them this compend will prove invaluable. The cordial endorsement of the first edition, the frequent, and urgent demand for a second one, by leading and active members of the profession — with which the author has been favored — inspire the hope that the present volume, in its revised and enlarged form, may become an indis pensable companion to students and practitioners.
