Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Notes on the New American and Other Remedies "Medicine is a progressive science." - Code of Ethics. We have to congratulate our publishers on the rapid sale of the last Edition of the New Remedies, and wish this issue a like success. We have added many useful Notes to refresh the practitioner's memory in the sick room; for in the words of Professor Huxley, this "Modern medicine, in fact, is a kind of engineering; it is an attempt to study the machinery of the body, for the purpose of being able to put it right when it goes Wrong. Sickness is the going wrong of the machinery; death is the destruction of part of the machinery; and the only way in which that machinery can be set right, if it goes wrong, is not by sitting down and hoping - for it is not by sending for the first blacksmith who will administer his purge here and his bleeding there.
