Excerpt from General Therapeutics and Materia Medica, Vol. 1 of 2: Adapted for a Medical Text-Book, With Indexes of Remedies and of Diseases and Their Remedies In all cases, the Author has referred to the position held by the drug as an article of the organized, or of the inorganic kingdom; as well as to general matters of interest relative to the place where it is found, the manner in which it is obtained, and to certain points con nected with its commercial history; but next to therapeutical applica tions he has dwelt more at length on the sensible properties, by which the physician may be enabled to judge of the various articles from his own observation. In another work,1 he has remarked, that it would, doubtless, be well that the physician should know the natural history of the animal whence he obtains his castor, his musk, &c., and that he should be acquainted with the botanical relations of the plants, Whose preparations he prescribes; but such a knowledge is no more indispensable than Greek is to an acquaintance with medical technology. The argument may, indeed, be extended to the consumer of the pro ducts of the animal and vegetable kingdoms as articles of diet. It would be well for him, no doubt, to, be acquainted with the natural history of the ox, the sheep, the hog, &c., whence he derives his sus tenance; yet, notwithstanding his ignorance on this point, universal experience demonstrates, that he has no difficulty in appropriating them to his dietetic necessities. Moreover, there were already valu able works in which all these topics, so interesting to the apothecary especially, are given at such length as almost to exhaust the subject; and of these one of the most remarkable is that of Dr. Pereira, re published in this country under the competent supervision of Dr. Carson, Professor of Materia Medica in the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy.2 Of this the Author largely avails himself in the pre paration of the second edition of the present work. He was like wise greatly indebted to the full and accurate Dispensatory of Drs. Wood and Bache - his learned colleagues in the revision of the Phar macopoeia of the United States to the Dispensatory of Dr. Christison; and - in a minor degree - to the work on Therapeutics and Materia Medica of MM. Trousseau and Pidoux. Nor did the modern German publications on the subject escape his attention. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1874 edition. Excerpt: ...1856, p. 442. the paroxysms were arrested by the first day's administration of the medicine, to the amount of twenty grains.' Mode of Action of Cinchona in the Cure of Periodical Diseases.--The description furnished in the-preceding paragraphs may, perhaps, assist us in forming an opinion regarding the manner in which cinchona becomes a remedy for periodical fevers. Originally a doctrine prevailed, and was strenuously defended by Morton, that the essential cause of periodical fever is a material agent, which he compared to a ferment. At that period the belief in such an agent did not rest upon the probable ground which the experiments and observations of Lancisi afterwards afforded it. From the time of the latter, the doctrine of Morton, although occasionally obscured by transient medical systems, continued to be accepted by all the leading medical investigators of the subject, and is so at the present day. It has, indeed, been urged against this opinion, that intermittent neuralgic, and other local affections, not of a miasmatic origin, and occurring in regions where no sources of miasm exist, are nevertheless curable by means of bark. This fact cannot be denied; yet, because non-miasmatic neuralgia in one place, and miasmatic fever in another, alike observe the law of periodicity, and both are curable by quinia, we are not at liberty to conclude that the nature and cause of the periodicity are the same in both cases. In truth the mightiest phenomena of the universe, as well as the simplest functions of the animal economy, are governed by a law which impresses periodical mutations upon every animate and inanimate thing. This is strikingly visible when we study the revolutions of the animal functions, the uterine, digestive, and nervous, ...
