Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This 19th-century volume from the 'Retrospect of Medicine' series examines medical treatments and practices that were in use in the latter half of the 1800s. The first part of the volume focuses on diseases affecting the system generally, addressing topics such as typhoid fever, gout, and rheumatism. It explores the prevailing theories of the time, including the belief that contagious diseases were caused by poisons released into the bloodstream. The second part delves into diseases of the nervous system and their management, and introduces novel treatments such as the use of calabar bean for the relief of facial pain. The book also delves into diseases of the circulatory system, offering insights into the use of digitalis as a heart stimulant and discusses surgical techniques for the treatment of aneurysms in great detail. The comprehensive collection of articles explores a multitude of other medical issues and treatments prevalent around that time. 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.…
