Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Formation of Professional Character: An Introductory Lecture, Delivered Nov. 4th, 1844
The moral attainments which should be acquired by the medical practitioner, are of great importance in contributing to the formation of professional character. The most prominent, useful, and energetic in their plastic and transforming presence, are a vivid sense of responsibility, a sympathy for the sick, and an exalted estimate of the dignity and excellence of the science of medicine.
