Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Pathology and Treatment of Gonorrhoea and Spermatorrhoea The following work contains, in an abridged form, the substance of the earlier editions; the papers on scalding, chordee, and gonorrh a printed in the Medical Times; those on the treatment of gonorrh a published in the Medical Circular, and several papers read before the Medical Society of London and the North London and Western Medical Societies. The sections on the treatment of gleet, on gonorrh a in the female, on orchitis, and on gonorrh al rheumatism, have been revised and amplified. Those on gonorrh al affections of the heart and pericardium, the peritoneum and pleura, dura mater and sheath of the spinal cord; on gonorrh al py mia, pyelitis, etc., are now added for the first time. With the view of reducing the bulk of the work, many of the cases given in the first edition have been omitted, and those which are retained have been selected chiefly as examples absolutely necessary to show the power of certain remedies, or because they illustrate peculiar forms of the disorder which have been rather overlooked. It was indispensable to retain these in a work intended, not for a class book, but as one of reference for the busy practitioner. The same reasons which induced me to leave out superfluous cases, make it incumbent to dispense with all description of symptoms. It is not to be expected that the adverse judgment passed upon many remedies, which have been at one time or other so strongly advocated, will prove acceptable to those who recommended them to public favor. But for this there is no help. Experience compels me to say that they have not fulfilled the expectations which the first accounts of them were calculated to raise. Whether the attempt now made to prove that gonorrh a may, when admitting of removal, be cured without the use of the so-called specific, is based on sufficient grounds or not, it would ill become me to say.
