Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Drug Habits and Their Treatment: A Clinical Summary of Some of the General Facts Recorded in Practice
The Disease of Inebriety is now passing through the empiric and-squatter stage of development, which meets every new truth of science. The partial recognition of the Disease of Inebriety has attracted the empirics, who, like squatters in a new country, rush in and occupy the land with great noise and pretension. They never build towns or cities, or develop the country, but dis appear when permanent settlers arrive. This lit tle work comes in the capacity of a permanent settler, and aims to point out some of the general facts and conditions of Inebriety, and to indicate the great possibilities awaiting further research and more exact study. The curability of this form of neurosis is established beyond question, from the limted studies and experience of the present. Evidently we are on the threshold of a new realm of practical science, in the study and cure of the Disease of Inebriety, and the results may exceed any present expectation.
