Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of Popular Medicine and Hygiene: American Domestic Medicine and Household Physician; A Companion for the Traveller, Emigrant, Clergyman, and Miner, as Well as for the Heads of All Families and Institutions In as far as the prevention of disease could be dealt with in this book it has been done. There is a large class of persons, including missionaries abroad, sailors, travelers, and all living in the country, who are so situated that medical aid cannot be had directly, or even at all in some cases, who are sufficiently intelligent to understand what is written about dis ease, and to apply it; and for such persons it seemed desirable that the treatment of the more common forms of disease should be entered into with a degree of detail. On the whole, I believe the book will be found more up to the science Of the time than any previous attempt made to popularize the practice of medicine and surgery. Should reference to this Dictionary lead persons to read some of the scientific treatises on Physiology, or to interest themselves in introducing into schools the study of this the most important branch of human knowledge, it would be the highest reward and the greatest gratification I could obtain in having connected my name with it.

Download or read book The Family Physician and Guide to Health written by Elijah B. Hammack and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Family Physician and Guide to Health: A System of Domestic Medicine; Including a Treatise on Midwifery and the Diseases Peculiar to Women I have no apology to offer. I have done the very best I could in preparing the matter for this work. I have diligently consulted the ablest, latest and best authori ties in medical literature, coming from both Europe and America, and have tried hard to present the accepted facts of the history, symptoms and treatment of diseases in plain, simple and common-place language, so that every school boy or girl of intelligence can understand and comprehend them. I have given the' symptoms plainly and laid down the treatment, not only on general principles, but specially, stating exactly what to give, how much of it to give at a time, and how often to giveit. By this means I have placed a great amount of valuable information within easy reach of the common people information, too, upon which may depend their health, happiness or lives, or that of those dependent upon them. I neither deprecate nor invite criticism, believing that the critic has neither a very wide nor profitable field for his fault-finding skill. If my unpresuming book finds favor with the intelligent public, I will be content to let critics fume and fret, and enemies sneer and curl the lip with the scorn they try to feel. A few physicians, from selfish motives, may try to discourage the masses from patronizing the work, but I flatter myself that it will receive the hearty approval of a large majority of those who have kept themselves posted in the standard medical literature of the day. The intelligent physician wants an intelligent and well-informed patient: with such an one his labor is easy and pleasant. It is only those who do not know quite as much as they really should who try to keep the common people in ignorance in regard to the symptoms and treatment of disease. They fear the light of knowledge; they know in it their own feeble light would shine but idimly. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Trusting Doctors written by Jonathan B. Imber and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, the American medical profession insisted that doctors be rigorously trained in medical science and dedicated to professional ethics. Patients revered their doctors as representatives of a sacred vocation. Do we still trust doctors with the same conviction? In Trusting Doctors, Jonathan Imber attributes the development of patients' faith in doctors to the inspiration and influence of Protestant and Catholic clergymen during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He explains that as the influence of clergymen waned, and as reliance on medical technology increased, patients' trust in doctors steadily declined. Trusting Doctors discusses the emphasis that Protestant clergymen placed on the physician's vocation; the focus that Catholic moralists put on specific dilemmas faced in daily medical practice; and the loss of unchallenged authority experienced by doctors after World War II, when practitioners became valued for their technical competence rather than their personal integrity. Imber shows how the clergy gradually lost their impact in defining the physician's moral character, and how vocal critics of medicine contributed to a decline in patient confidence. The author argues that as modern medicine becomes defined by specialization, rapid medical advance, profit-driven industry, and ever more anxious patients, the future for a renewed trust in doctors will be confronted by even greater challenges. Trusting Doctors provides valuable insights into the religious underpinnings of the doctor-patient relationship and raises critical questions about the ultimate place of the medical profession in American life and culture.
