Excerpt from Domestic Homoepathy, Restricted to Its Legitimate Sphere of Practice: Together With Rules for Diet and Regimen
The works hitherto written to adapt Homeopathy to domestic purposes, however great their intrinsic merits in many respects, have not a little contributed to ag gravate the mischief. Being composed at a time when country practitioners of the new school were hardly to be met with, and the non-professional homeopathist, Was o'ften driven to act as a physician by the force of circumstances over which he had no control, it was ah solutely necessary to include in the plan a number of subjects, which in treatises of this kind would other wise have been completety out of place. This state of things is fast passing away, and it is, therefore, evi dent, that the semi-papular, semi-professional character of the mahuals which are in vogue must daily lessen their usefulness, and render them objectionable, and even dangerous, in the hands of the untaught.
The conviction that the time is now come in which another description of book is wanted by the non-medi cal public, has led me to compose the present work. Its principal object is explained by its title: namely to restrict the Domenic Practice of Homumpathy to its proper limits.
