Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineral Waters and Health Resorts of Europe: Treatment of Chronic Diseases by Spas and Climates, With Hints as to the Simultaneous Employment of Various Physical and Dietetic Methods; Being a Revised and Enlarged Edition of 'the Spas and Mineral Waters of Europe' In describing the individual spas and mineral waters there has been necessarily a good deal of repetition, which, however, it is hoped may be found of use by those who chance to consult the book for information concerning some particular spa only. For purposes of reference also, a number of spas (some merely of local importance) have been mentioned, though they are hardly likely to be known or visited by English medical men or patients. In the present, as in the first, edition the various spas have been described in groups according to the main position they occupy in the classification which we have adopted. The thick figures made use of in the index for the main references will, we trust, prevent loss of time in reference, but in another edition, should there be one, we shall perhaps merely name the chief health resorts where we have described them in the present edition, and then give their actual de scriptions in alphabetical order in a separate part of the book - an arrangement which obviates the necessary imperfections of all methods of classification, and which does not require the frequent use of cross references from one group of spas to another.
