Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Dispensing: A Treatise on the Methods and Processes Involved in Compounding Medical Prescriptions With Dictionaries of Abbreviations and Terms Used in British and Foreign Prescriptions, Incompatibles and New Remedies, and Numerous Memoranda for Dispensers and Prescri The history of The 'Art of Dispensing' in book form is graphically represented on the preceding page. But it went through a probationary period before 1888, the germ of it being contained in The Chemists' and Druggists' Diary of 1880, which was so well appreciated that the short treatise was augmented for the 1885 Diary by extracts from the late Dr. Hermann Hager's 'Technik der Pharmaceutischen Receptur'; then proofs of the combined work were submitted to twelve pharmaceutical chemists in Great Britain, who commented upon the text, and their annotations were appended in small type to the text. There was thus obtained a symposium on this branch of the pharmacists art which is probably unique in our literature. This treatise was reprinted as a 196-page pamphlet when the edition of the Diary was exhausted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
