Reese and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Lecture Delivered Before the Medical Class in Castleton Medical College, at the Opening of the Fall Session, 1842 To prepare you to think correctly, and thus theorize for yourselves, it will be necessary to review the ancient and modern doctrines of general and special medicine, including the theories which have successively had their day among medical philosophers. These with the facts by which they were attempted to be sustained by their authors and adherents, will constitute the ground-work of the pres ent course. In this brief and cursory view of the past, which is all that our time will permit, you will find that much, very much which is true in medicine is as old as Hippocrates, many of his theories having been based upon observation and experience, and being there fore of necessity immutable. His errors were few and inconsidera ble, even as discoverable in the advanced state of our knowledge at this day, notwithstanding the disadvantages under which he pur sued his researches, ia ignorance of human structure, except so far as it could be revealed to him by the dissection of inferior animals. Under these circumstances we are constrained at this day to marvel, not at his errors, but that he could, by possibility, have acquired the knowledge, of which his writings give evidence. All modern physicians at the present day regard Anatomy, healthy and morbid, as constituting the elements of all the accuracy to which we can attain in medicine, and their theories are constructed by studying symptoms in reference to such anatomy, and by testing the powers of remedies by experience. It is upon facts such as these, that our science is now made rigidly one of induction. Simi lar facts have been accumulating for centuries, and as they are tan gible in their character, and susceptible of demonstration by every inquirer for himself, the constancy of their recurrence in the hands and under the eye of every observer, affords a protection against any considerable error or fallacy.

This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introductory Lecture, Delivered at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the City of New York, Nov: 5, 1830 In the whole career of human existence, there is perhaps no question to the determination of which a man may be called, so really important to himself as that which relates to the business or profession which is to occupy the thoughts and labours of his future life. According to the decision which he here makes, may his fortunes be prosperous or adverse, and his name destined to honour or contempt. The reason is obvious. Man is the creature of circumstances. Constituted by his Creator a social being - endowed with susceptibilities of being influenced by others of his species, it is evident that his character and destiny must, to a very great extent, be controlled by the associations which necessity - or accident - or fortune may have forced upon him. Hence it is that by education and example he is formed to good or to evil. By the kindred spirits with whom he sympathizes and acts, he is stirred to lofty purposes and a noble ambition, or sunk into base thoughts and unworthy practices.

This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introductory Lecture, Delivered in the Medical College of South-Carolina, in November 1835 What has been more abused or mal-administered in some instances, than the principles of law and equity? Do not statesmen, who should regulate governments in the principles of virtue and honor, frequently violate their solemn duties? And has not the sacred temple of God been profaned by ignorance and vice? Yet would we say that all law, all government, all religion, is undeserving of con fidence because some men, either from incapacity or wickedness, do not put fully into practice the immutable principles of equity or the eternal truths of religion? It is true there have been some men, in all ages, who have been dignified with the character of philoso phots, who have thrown the shafts of ridicule and proclaimed their anathemas against religion. Because, under the garb of sanctity, some have polluted the temple of the Most High - and in like manner, the Medical profession has been satirized by the poet, and sneered at by the cynic - because of the ignorance and folly of some of its mem bers. Indeed, when we reflect upon the conflicting doctrines which have been advanced in Medicine, when we reflect upon the con tlanal efforts which are made by Medical men to bring themselves into notice and reputation, by decrying their competitors, and how many pursue the profession, who either by their attainments or pow er of observation or acumen, are unable to apply properly its principles, we have reason rather to wonder at the respect which is still paid to the dicta of Physicians than that there should be at times little or no distinction made by some portions of a community be tween the regularly educated physician and the empirical pretender. Empiricism has prevailed in every country andin every age. In all professions, nay, in every pursuit of life, we find some men preferring the paths of treachery, cunning, and imposture, to that of honesty, intelligence and virtue; and among the vacillating, weak, and credulous, how many are entangled in its snares - awhile others, afflicted with incurable diseases, hope still fluttering in their bosoms, hke the weary and benighted traveller pursue any false light which may be presented to them - the hapless victims of its fatal promises Our profession has, however, no more to complain of than the pursuits of other men. Whenever the physician is thoroughly acquainted with the principles of his profession, he has nothing to fear, for knowledge, associated with virtue and honor, is a panoply, capable of resisting the shafts of envy, or the intrigues of designing men.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Address, Delivered at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York: October 16, 1855 If we are sometimes tempted to think that medicine has, so far, made little progress, it is only because the subject is so complicated and its extent so boundless. The avenues that it opens to us stretch out so far into the future that the space already passed over seems small in comparison. But it is small in comparison only. In every complicated department of human knowledge progress is at first slow and difficult, opposed by obstacles, retarded by unavoidable errors, which must be corrected by subsequent examination. The pioneers of Medicine had no royal road to follow. Their landmarks were few, and easily mistaken. Their route led over intricate passes or through close and tangled thickets. Sometimes they were obliged to cross trembling and insecure morasses and sometimes, withlaborious strokes of the hammer and crowbar. They must force their way through ledges of the solid rock. What wonder is it that they were sometimes misled by false landmarks, and wandered off into impassable wastes, or were misled into devious by-paths, that carried them backward while they thought themselves advancing? Standing now on the eminence to which they have brought us, we can look back and see the windings, and faults, and doublings of their track. But if we had to begin where they begun, and to go over now the same ground, we should commit at least as many errors as they. Let us not suppose, then, because we are sometimes ob liged to discard as error what was a year ago held as truth, that for that reason all previous labors were fruitless, and we are still beginning at the beginning. That is not the case. These errors were only a part of our previous acquisition. They were the unavoidable mistakes, made in first studying an intricate subject; - and by continued perseverance they are successively sifted out, while that which is absolutely true remains behind, slowly but constantly accumulating.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Lecture, Delivered in the Philadelphia College of Medicine: On Thursday Evening, November 2, 1848 As you make your curriculum of attendance you will observe that one portion of the topics which will be thus presented is theoretical, the other practical: the one furnishing you the basis of your knowledge, the other affording you a view of the opinions prevailing in the profession in relation to the most appropriate means of attaining the objects of the practitioner of the healing art.
