First Lines of the Practice of Physic, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a foundational work from the late 18th century on the practice of physic. Following the author's personal experience of over forty years in that practice, as well as his careful reading and reflection, this extensive volume delivers a comprehensive system of medical knowledge. It was written at a time when the prevailing medical doctrines in Europe were those of Galen, the Arabian physicians, Stahl and Boerhaave. The author has aimed to create a more complete and advanced system, that included what was then new medical knowledge. He believed that proper medical care must be founded on principles established by reasoning. The system outlined here attempts to explain the phenomena of both health and disease based on the state of the body's fluids. The author also considered and rejected the popular ideas of his time about the spontaneous healing power of nature and the importance of attending to the patient's mental state in achieving a cure. It is one of the more important works in the history of medicine, and may be of use even today for those seeking to understand that history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780260249593_0
