The author does not, like some members of his profession, enter into a learned de- scription of cures, but traces the causes of diseases with philosophical precision. The book contains what every one should know, and members of the medical profession will not find a study of it in vain."— Philadelphia Inquirer. Hand-Book of Sanitary Information for Householders.
