Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book posits that inflammation is not merely a symptom of disease but a disease in and of itself. The author begins with a discussion of the structure and motion of animal solids as it relates to inflammation. The author's theory is rooted in the vital principle, which is stimulated by exciting causes to cause brous contraction. The author believes that the remote cause of inflammation is a quantity of action so great as to expend this vital principle faster than it can be supplied. Because the author theorizes inflammation as essentially debility, the cure is to treat the debility with astringents and stimulants. The author also discusses pain and heat as accidental, not essential, features of inflammation. This book is a significant contribution to the medical discussion of inflammation and provides deep insights into a disease that was once poorly understood.
