Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Observations on Tuberculous Consumption: Containing New Views on the Nature, Pathology and Cure of That Disease, Being an Attempt to Found Its Treatment on Rational Principles, Deduced From Physiology and Confirmed by Extensive Application
When an author proposes to add another Treatise to numbers already published on the subject he undertakes to discuss, it behoves him to show that he has a rational prospect of either adding to the general stock of ideas on the matter of his discourse - or, of placing old ones under a new aspect - or, of improving their arrangement; unless one or other of these purposes be gained, it would be perhaps better, both for himself and the public, that his pages had never seen the light.
