Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annual Address, Delivered Before the American Academy of Medicine, at Its Seventh Annual Meeting, in Philadelphia, October 26th, 1882 Alexander Stevens, at the same meeting, said: Were the pre liminary qualifications requisite to an admission into private offices and into the medical colleges more enlarged, not only would the standing of the profession be exalted, and its usefulness augmented, but the cause of humanity more truly subserved. (the same, p. In 1849, Drs. John Ware, Jacob Bigelow, and O. W. Holmes, all medical teachers, and representing the views of the Medical Faculty of Harvard University, stated that no extension of the term of lectures - no other measures that are contemplated - will raise the character of our profession, till either a liberal education is required as a necessary preliminary to a medical, or till a longer term of study is required of those who have not had such an edu cation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Address, Delivered Before the Medical Society of Tennessee, at Its Eighth Annual Meeting at Nashville, on the 7th of May, 1838 But I consume the time of the Society with stale truisms. Since they were recognized, and anatomy assumed the rank of paramount importance due to it as the basis of medicine, the profession has gone forward with a celerity unknown to any former age. The greatest improvements have beer made within the last thirty years, and are especially due to pathological anatomy. Hospitals and autopsies ushered in the new era, since which the science has advanced with a sure and vigorous step. A broader and clearer light has been beaming upon its philosophy, and greater certainty, safety and efficiency have been given to its practice. Human and comparative anatomy explaining the functions in a state of health, and the inspection of the dead body revealing the character of disease, while an extended and greatly improved chemistry has enriched its resources, medicine at the present day appears a new science, or an old one instinct with a more rational principle. It is among the curious facts with which history abounds, that this change was favored and accelerated by causes quite foreign to medicine, and which seemed at the time as hostile to science as to humanity. In the wars which for twenty years deluged Europe in blood, we find one of the chief impulses which led on to this revolution. The campaigns of Napoleon opened to his physicians schools of practical anatomy such as the world had not yet beheld, and his all-grasping mind embraced every interest which involved the fame of his country. The savans of the Republic made a part of the grand army, and traversed the earth with his resistless legions. The genius of science flew with his eagles from sea to sea, and collected treasures under every path of the sun. Medicine is enriched by the records of what his philosophers observed at the foot of the pyramids, and amid the Pontine marshes - under the burning sun of Syria, ah' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The President's Address Delivered Before the Association of American Physicians, at Its Eleventh Annual Meeting at Washington, D. C., April 30, 1896 The normal vital processes depend on two pow ers, the cells and the blood. The very structure and function of the former are acted upon or built up by the latter. Thusit appears as our master Virchow has lately pointed out, that finally we return to a species of humoral pathology, but not indeed to the crases and dia theses of old. For modern humoral pathology looks for the presence in the blood of actual agents mostly of chemical nature. Part of them has been shown to be so; in the case of others we have to rely on inferences. Still, with peptones, aceton, sugar, with acetic, lactic, oxalic, uric, and oxybutyric acids in the blood we are fairly ac quainted; and the discovery of Fraenkel's thy reo-antitoxin proves to what extent the action of the organic juices is mainly, if not altogether chemical. The interests of the practitioner and his patients, of medical science and the commonwealth, are equally served by these views when tested by practice. As an Association we have to deal with the interests of science and of the community; of the latter even more than it is willing to under stand or to admit. We, however, need not be exhorted to continue our work. The misunder stood sympathy with the alleged sufferings of ani mals, and the agitations of the anti-vivisectionists - no matter whether merely misinformed or fanat ical - must not swerve us from studying, from learning, and from serving mankind by combining our efforts for public purposes. The hygienic in terests of the community are, or ought to be, in our keeping. Your Association being the scientific representative of internal medicine in America, ought to be recognized all over the Union as the scientific law-giver. What the New York Acad emy of Medicine is calculated to become for New York City, this Association ought to be able to be for the Union and beyond it through the scientific labors of its members. In order, however, to at tain this destiny, let us not forget that medicine must be one and inseparable, now and forever.

This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Address Before the American Academy of Medicine, at New York, September 16th, 1879 Gentlemen Fellows of the American Academy of Medicine The close of the third year of the existence of our organization shows an increase of interest, on the part of the medical profession, in the ob jects aimed at in its formation, and a more earnest desire to see how they may be secured. The Academy does not claim any merit for the discovery of defects in the preparatory training of those who enter upon a course of medical study these defects have been long recog nized by the profession all over the land. It does not propose any novel method of association to bind in close fraternal bonds the members themselves of the profession; this is attempted by the organizations already in existence which have done so much to dignify the profession of medicine and to eliminate from its ranks the shallow empiric. It does not arrogate to itself any special ability to add to the store of medical knowledge in regard to disease or to the cultiva tion of State medicine these are the darling Objects of every cultured, faithful physician, towards which he feels himself drawn by the stron gest possible ties of professional loyalty and the most urgent claims of philanthropy. It antagonizes no organized effort to improve the profession or to increase the sphere of its usefulness, and it proposes no contest for numbers with any existing society. On the contrary, its members are mostly connected with other medical organizations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Inaugural Address, Delivered Before the New-York Academy of Medicine, February 7, 1849 This is a joyous meeting. The occasion which has brought us together is one of peculiar interest. The Academy of Medicine is convened according to con stitutional provision, with the expressed intention of inducting its newly-elected Head into that office which your su 'rages have chosen him to occupy. It may, therefore, well be considered an epoch in our annals. While it admonishes us of the march of time, while it notes the progress of our labors in the advancement of philosophical truth, it reminds us of the associations of friendship which we have formed; it awakens recollections of the pleasures which ow from intellectual culture, and of that harmony which at all times has characterized our deliberations, alike honorable to science and humanity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Inaugural Address, Delivered Before the New-York Academy of Medicine, February 2d, 1848 I do not think I exaggerate the importance of the labors which have occupied your attention the year just terminated, when I add, that many interesting subjects have challenged your consideration, and that the work has been well done.

My prayer is, that the earnestness thus exhibited at the onset, may augment with the occasion which demands it, and that the papers which we shall receive from individual members, as well as from your Committees, may be marked by that cautious observation and precise collocation of facts, accompanied with that severe reasoning which. Will give to our transactions a practical character, which alone can secure usefulness and durability to our proceedings.

Winston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ninth Annual Introductory Address, Delivered Before the Class of the Medical Department of the University of Nashville, November 7, 1859 A great difficulty connected with this subject, as already inti mated, is, that the action of medicine is a perfect mystery, especially to the uninformed. Hence priestcraft and witchcraft have been invoked, and a seventh son has been preferred to the most erudite physician. There is nothing in the appearance or the physical qualities of opium, or ipecac., which would indicate that the one would act upon the brain and the other upon the stomach. These facts are only known from observation. And we forget that in medicine, as any where else in nature, for every effect there must not only be a cause, but an adequate cause; and that consequently such medication as can of necessity produce no physiological change, can at all relieve disease, and that the therapeutical effect of a remedy is but the result of its physiological action. This point I think has been greatly obscured by establishing a difference between the therapeutical and physiological effects of remedies. I know that disease modifies the effect of a remedy; but still the tendency of every remedy is to produce the same physiological changes in health as in disease, and it is only by effecting physiological changes that health is restored.
