Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements Medical Jurisprudence: Interspersed Interspaced a Copious Selection, Curious of Curious Cases, Analyses of Opinions Delivered at Opinions Inquests In presenting this volume to the Profession, I cannot but feel how imperfectly I have fulfilled the object which I had in view, namely, - of rendering it a practical guide for the Medical Jurist. It has long been an acknowledged fact, that no branch of literature is so deficient in this country, as that of Medical Jurisprudence. A few treatises only have as yet appeared, and these, partly from a want of practical application in the details, and partly in consequence of the medico-legal illustrations being drawn from old and recondite sources, have not succeeded to any great extent, in preparing the British medical practitioner for those duties which he is occasionally called upon to perform. Let it not be considered, that, by these remarks, I intend to derogate from the labours of those of my countrymen, who have preceded me in their literary contributions to this science: - the novelty of the subject of which they were treating, as well as the absolute want of all authorities in their own tongue, are circumstances which satisfactorily account for the deficiencies that exist in their writings; they are indeed deficiencies, belonging to the time at which they wrote, or arising from the paucity of materials upon which they had to work.
