Excerpt from An Analytical Compendium of the Various Branches of Medical Science: For the Use and Examination of Students
The rapid progress of the Medical Sciences, and the in creasing number and size of the standard text-books in'the various departments of Medicine and Surgery, have created a necessity for Compends, or Manuals, to aid the stu dent in the prosecution of his labours, and the practitioner in recalling his former studies.
The present work has been prepared solely to meet this want. It does not pretend to comprise in so limited a space all that is necessary to the student or practitioner; but merely to embody the elements of medical science, as much as is compatible with its character as an analysis. While, therefore, it is not offered as a substitute for the ordinary text-books, or designed to lessen the necessity of regular at tendance on lectures, or systematic office study, it is hoped that it may be found of practical use in facilitating the ao quisition of knowledge.
