Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Practice of Medicine IN the composition of this work, an effort has been made to exhibit a distinct View of the essential phenomena and princi ples pertaining to the various subjects which it embraces, with an especial endeavor to avoid the extremes of unsatisfactory brevity on the one hand, and of fatiguing prolixity of detail and discussion on the other. With the exception, therefore, of a few instances in the introductory portion of the work, the author has indulged but little in controversial discussion and general speen lation. His object has been, to give a digest of facts and estab lished principles, rather than of opinions and points of disputation. He has not, however, failed to give an exposition of those patho logical and therapeutic principles, which appeared to him fairly deducible from the particular phenomena brought under consi deration and whenever his own experience and reflections have led him to differ from others, he has freely, though he trusts with becoming deference, stated his sentiments. It will be perceived, that no general doctrine or system of pathology is exclusively or especially, favored in the following pages. Medicine, as it is now generally cultivated, is strictly eclectic. The judicious and unprejudiced physician will neither condemn nor adopt unreservedly any of the leading doctrines advanced in modern times. He will see something to admire and embrace in the systems of Brown, of Cullen, of Darwin, of Broussais - and even of the fanciful Hahnemann although when offered to his acceptance as doctrines of universal application, he may very reasonably refuse his assent.
