Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Points of Practical Interest in Gynaecology
OF those whom Providence has qualified to make any additions to human knowledge, the number is extremely small, and what can be added by each single mind, even of this superior class, is very little; the greatest part of mankind must owe all their knowledge, and all must owe far the larger part of it, to the information of others. To understand the works of celebrated authors, to comprehend their systems, and retain their reasonings, is a task more than equal to common intellects; and he is by no means to be accounted useless or idle who has stored his mind with acquired knowledge, and details it occasionally to others who have less leisure or weaker abilities.
