Book excerpt: Excerpt from A System of Physiologic Therapeutics, Vol. 1: A Practical Exposition of the Methods, Other Than Drugging, Useful, in the Treatment of the Sick; Electrotherapy With the thorough work on Electrotherapy by Dr. Jacoby, supplemented by the excellent special articles of Drs. Da Costa, Jackson, Scheppegrell, Martin, and Ohmann-Dumesnil, begins the issuance of a series of volumes treating of much-neglected but important remedial measures. It is a work that I have long had in mind, and which, by a fortunate coincidence, had likewise been contemplated by my friend and publisher, Mr. Kenneth M. Blakiston. The system is the first of its kind to be published in America or in the English language, and in many important respects differs from similar works in other tongues. Among these differences are inclusion of themes, exclusion of irrelevant material, and general plan. In its planning, chiefly based on my observation of the needs and desires for information of students and practitioners, I have had the benefit of Mr. Blakiston's intimate knowledge of medical books, and in its publication the advantage of his personal supervision of the numerous minutiae that go to make a book mechanically perfect, and thereby diminish the labor of the reader in consulting it. We take a just pride in the handy form and clear typography of the volumes. Preferring compact books by single writers to bulky tomes of composite authorship, I have endeavored so to arrange the work that the entire field shall be covered, that nothing of moment shall be omitted, either from the general scheme or from the special articles, that theory and principles shall be sufficiently but briefly set forth, and that the descriptions of methods, indications, and counterindications shall be clear, definite, full, and practical; thus enabling the general practitioner to carry out for himself the important therapeutic measures recommended, and to do so understanding and correctly.
