Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Therapeutic Application of Electro-Magnetism in the Treatment of Rheumatic and Paralytic Affections
Having had, through the kindness of Dr. Froriep, an opportunity of witnessing the application of electro-magnetism in the treatment of many of the following cases, I was convinced that it was a valuable remedy in the treatment of rheumatic complaints, and my own subsequent experience has strengthened this belief. The therapeutic value of electro-magnetism has never been fairly tried-eit has been resorted to as a universal remedy capable of effecting impossibilities when all other remedies have failed; from this its want of success has arisen, and conseciuently it has not been duly appreciated. The desire to bring this remedial agent into more general favour, has induced me to undertake the translating of this work.
