Publisher's Synopsis
The Reformation of Medical Science, Demanded by Inductive Philosophy: A Discourse (1839) is a book written by William Channing. In this book, Channing argues that the medical field needs to undergo a reformation that is based on the principles of inductive philosophy. He believes that medicine should be approached in a scientific manner, where theories are tested and proven through observation and experimentation. Channing also discusses the importance of taking a holistic approach to medicine, considering not only the physical symptoms but also the mental and emotional well-being of the patient. He suggests that medical practitioners should be trained in the natural sciences and that medical education should be more focused on practical experience rather than theoretical knowledge. Overall, The Reformation of Medical Science, Demanded by Inductive Philosophy: A Discourse (1839) provides a thought-provoking analysis of the state of medicine in the 19th century and offers suggestions for how it can be improved.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
