Excerpt from Lectures on Syphilis and on Some Forms of Local Disease: Affecting Principally the Organs of Generation
The principal object of the present work is to illus trate some of Hunter's doctrines, which the lapse of time, and the dissemination of more recent views, have obscured or caused to be forgotten. Some of these doctrines require to be modified by the light of more recent investigations; while others, which have been long neglected, will still serve as landmarks for this and for succeeding generations. Some of Pear son's views with regard to the treatment of Syphilis, which, in the author's Opinion, deserve more attention than they have lately received, are also considered.
