Synopsis
Excerpt from The Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal: Exhibiting a View of the Progressive Discoveries and Improvements in the Sciences and the Arts; January-April 1830
An intimate acquaintance with the Greek language, and assi duous study of the philosophers and physicians of antiquity, had suggested to him happy explanations of several obscure passages in the Father of Medicine; and it is much to he regret ted that neither his notes, nor those of his auditors, have been found suficientl y ample for the reproduction of this course, at least in its principal articles, as has been done with respect to his course on the study of health.
His design was to follow the progress of observation in all ages, to shew how new facts have led to more correct general principles, and how, on the other hand, science has almost always been retarded by systems. It was a kind of experimental logic, in which he exercised his pupils, and they could have had no better master than he who, from his childhood, had, been so dis tinguished by his sound judgment.
