Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on the German Mineral Waters and on Their Rational Employment: With an Appendix, Embracing a Short Account of the Principal European Spas and Climatic Health-Resorts In preparing the second edition of the Lectures I have endeavoured to increase their utility, without greatly adding to the bulk of the work. Since the publication of the first edition (now out of print for nearly a year), the facilities of travelling have progressed to such a wonderful degree, that distance almost ceases to be taken into consideration in the selection of a health resort. It therefore behoves our profession, not only to be acquainted with Spas that were formerly easy of access, but also with all available natural means of curing or preventing disease. Wishing to give a concise account of many other Spas visited and explored since, I thought it best to leave the Lectures in their original form, so favourably received by the profession, and to add an appendix, which might serve as a short but comprehensive manual of all the important health resorts, not treated of in the previous edition. I have entirely omitted those portions which might be well suited to an auditory of students, but which would not be missed by the ordinary medical reader, as the lecture on the method of analyzing the waters. Other portions I have re-written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
