Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Modus Operandi of Various Kinds of Baths, Sea-Bathing, Heat and Cold, Physiologically Explained
The following pages were written with the object to confirm the original views heretofore promulgated by me, as well as to illustrate, in a practical manner, the necessity of every medical man being thoroughly conversant with the laws which regulate and govern the functions of the animal and organic nervous systems, the Oxygen and the Blood.
I do not pretend to know more about the preparation of Baths, or the effects produced by them, than any other member of the profession; my sole desire being to demonstrate why and how medicines, when administered internally or applied externally, are followed by certain effects.
