A Manual Of Pharmacology And Therapeutics Classic Reprint

Excerpt from A Manual of Pharmacology and Therapeutics Pharmacology has of late attained such importance in the Medical Curriculum, that a Student's Text-book on the subject is urgently needed. This work is an abstract of the Lectures delivered at the Westminster Hospital during the current session, and is adapted primarily to the requirements of students preparing for the examinations. The Therapeutical aspect of the question has been treated practically, and it is hoped that the large number of prescriptions scattered throughout the pages of the book will prove of use to practitioners who desire to keep abreast with the progress of modern treatment.

Excerpt from A Manual of Pharmacology and Its Applications to Therapeutics and Toxicology The volume can, therefore, serve both for study and reference. There may be some question as to the general advisability of combining text-books and reference books; but in Pharmacology this appears to be necessary, since every student may need more detailed information at any time. These objects necessitated a complete rearrangement, and fairly extensive enlargement of the book, and as the work progressed, it appeared plain that it meant not merely a revision, but the making of an entirely new book. With this enlargement of the text, it became necessary to practice the utmost economy of matter, in order to bring the contents within a single volume. This and other considerations prompted the separation of the 'laboratory Guide In Pharmacology, which will be issued as a companion volume. The illustrations have also been omitted wherever the text could be understood without them. A further economy was effected by cur tailing the discussion of the drugs of slight importance, thus leaving more space for the relatively few really important drugs. This is in line with the modern movement for the restriction of the Materia Medica. I am greatly indebted to my friend, Dr. R. A. Hatcher, for valuable help in reading the proofs.

Excerpt from A Manual of Veterinary Therapeutics and Pharmacology The following work is intended as an introduction to the important and extensive subject of veterinary therapeutics and pharmacology. It is divided into three parts. Part I. is introductory, and deals in a concise manner with the subjects of diagnosis and the general symptoms of disease in relation to therapeutics; the actions and uses of medicinal agents are also briefly noticed in a general manner. Part II. is devoted to general therapeutics, and in it the author has followed the plan adopted by Dr. Mitchell Bruce in his excellent work on 'Materia Medica and Therapeutics, ' viz., that of discussing the actions and uses of remedies under the physiological systems of the body. Part III. deals with special therapeutics, and here again the author has arranged the actions of drugs on the plan adopted by Dr. Mitchell Bruce, which consists in discussing their actions from their first contact with the body, to their effects on the various organs and tissues until they become eliminated.
