A Physician's Analysis of the Why and Wherefore What's What and of What's Worth While in Exercise: Illustrated Movements This book is not a treatise. It is not filled to the brim with so-called science. There is no science of exercise and within will not be found even a demi-semi-quaver of what would look like science. All is empirical: the condensation of daily observation and of daily experience with exercise and with the body in health and disease. Something daily done for the sake of exercise these forty odd years combined with ample opportunity for observing the phenomena of life in health and illness, would seem to give a man warrant for producing his conclusions. In the course of much pondering on the subject of exercise, the book has written itself. If it had not a message, we should most earnestly regret making even a small addition to that smothering pile of books (would that one might say pyre) even a glimpse of which is bewildering. Existing books that deal with this subject we find far from satisfactory, because written by physical instructors or, if by M. D.'s, largely by men whose M. D. represents merely, medical study undertaken, it would seem for the most part, with the object of adding M. D. to the title of Physical Director.
