Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on State Medicine So many Parliamentary inquiries have been lately instituted; and so many measures have been proposed, on subjects relating to the Public Health, and affecting either the agency of the Medical Profession for State purposes or the qualification of its members, - and the importance of these matters has become so generally acknowledged, - that any one who has thought much on them may, perhaps, be excused for endeavouring to reduce to some degree of order this accumulating mass of materials.

This republication of them is a tardy compliance with suggestions made repeatedly by those on whose opinion in such a matter, more than on his own, the author would rely. The essays on kindred topics were written for different occasions, without any expectation of their being associated in a volume; and this fact will explain some repetitions which will be oh served.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays in Pastoral Medicine Since, then, so many of the questions of pastoral medicine are not defined, physicians are likely to follow the doctrine of the standard medical books, which without exception advise them to take the life of a dangerous foetus almost as uncon cernedly as they might prescribe an active drug, or in any case to put utility before justice. There is, therefore, an urgent necessity that competent men fix that shifting part of ethics and moral theology called pastoral medicine, and these essays are presented as a temporary bridge to serve in crossing a corner of the bog until better engineers lay down a permanent causeway.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays Clinical Medicine: Being the I Being Reprints of Papers Published at Various Times in the "American Journal of the Medical Sciences" The use of creasote in tlie treatment of phthisis pulmonalis dates back to 1830, the year in which its was discovered by Keichenbach, of Blausko, in Moravia. Later on, it fell into disuse, like some other valuable medicaments, and for nearly thirty years previous to 1877 it was practically of little or no importance in the therapeutics of pulmonary disease. At the date just referred to, Drs. Bouchard and Gimbert again revived interest in this drug by publishing a very complete article in the Gazette IMdomaduire, of Paris," on its beneficial effects in consumption. They claimed for it excellent results, and for careful, learned, and honest observers, their account, was as nearly enthusiastic as thorough work is apt to be. Shortly after reading of the observations 01 Bouchard and Gimbert, I began to use creosote in the treatment of pulmonary phthisis, and in a clinical lecture delivered at the Bellevue Hospital Medical College, and published id the Medical Record of September 21,1878, page 223,1 mention in what manner I have used it and with what results in the following terms: "For several months, both in the Out-door Department of the New York Hospital, at Charity Hospital and elsewhere, I have given dessert-spoonful doses of the mistura creasoti of our Pharmacopoeia to lessen the quantity of sputa in phthisis. I am very much pleased with this remedy, and believe it merits a very extensive trial. No doubt, in lessening the abundance of expectoration, it also diminishes the frequency of cough." At that time, I would add, I regarded creosote aa being only a good anti-catarrhal agent, to be ranked high amongst some analogous remedial substances whose main action consisted in the diminution of the amount, of purulent sputa, but which had little or no curative effect upon the essential lesions of pulmonary phthisis, aa we understand them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Military Medical and Surgical Essays: Prepared for the United States Sanitary Commission The essays which are contained in the present volume were prepared, under the auspices of the United States Sanitary Commission, by gentlemen selected for their presumed acquaintance with the subjects upon which they were desired to write, and were originally published as separate monographs for gratuitous distribution to the medical officers of the army. The favor with which they have been received both at home and abroad, and the wish expressed in many quarters that they might be arranged in a more permanent form, have led to their collection and republication in one volume. When the rebellion broke out, there were but few works treating of medical subjects from a military point of view which were attainable by the thousands of physicians who entered the army. That much good has been accomplished by the essays contained in this volume, scarcely admits of a doubt. The demand for them has been immense, and all of them have been reprinted several times. Though at the present day, when through the large experience winch our army medical officers have acquired, such monographs are scarcely necessary for their use, there are continually new candidates for military service coming forward to whom they cannot be too highly recommended.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Essays: Compiled From Reports to the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery Notwithstanding the general knowledge of the fact that the better mode of relieving human flesh of the ills to which it is heir is to prevent them, very little is done toward lessening the amount of physical suffering among mankind. Not only are individuals improvident of health, but public communities neglect precautions that would avert many attacks of disease; and even governments, having control of armies and navies, are unmindful of preventive measures which would diminish the expense and promote the efficiency of these bodies. It ought to be unnecessary to urge the importance of naval hygiene. If it be so requisite to study what to do and what to leave undone on shore, where everything demanded for the healthy maintenance of the body is in abundance, how much more strictly ought the laws of health to be observed on board ship, where human beings are crowded together in violation of all these laws, breathing a scanty supply of air vitiated by the retention of their own excretions, subsisting upon an unwholesome diet, their sleep always interrupted, and their minds continually disquieted by passions called into operation by the unnatural circumstances of their lives. Yet no sanitary code has ever been promulgated in our own service, nor, until recent years, has it been attempted elsewhere. The young medical officer is without a guide. As much confused by the manners of those around him as by the maze of rigging overhead, he credits whatever he is told and accepts, "it is the custom of the service," as palliating whatever appears barbarous and unnatural.
