Excerpt from A Dictionary of Medicine, Designed for Popular Use: Containing an Account of Diseases and Their Treatment, Including Those Most Frequent in Warm Climates There are many situations where no practitioner is at hand and where, on the occurrence of accident or disease, the treat ment of the sufferer must, in the first instance, be direct ed by the good sense and kindness of his neighbours. Such situations are to be met with in thinly-peopled districts, in retired villages, in foreign settlements, and commercial out posts; where the first who are asked to give advice to their dependants or companions, will be the clergyman or the landlord, the supercargo or the shipmaster. To all these, some knowledge of diseases and their treatment, will prove a valuable acquisition. To render the Work useful to such persons, I have been as sparing as possible of technical terms; and if any words or phrases sometimes occur not sufficiently adapted for com mon readers, they will generally be found explained in their alphabetical order. By adopting this arrangement, I have not only rendered the Work easily consulted on any disease, medicine, or circumstance of diet and regimen, but have been enabled occasionally to devote an article to some symptom deserving of particular consideration. Though it could not with propriety have so much space allotted to it in the de scription of a disease. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
