Excerpt from The American Practitioner, Vol. 12: A Monthly Journal of Medicine and Surgery; July-December, 1875

The accession of Dr. Cooke to the medical department of Transylvania University, then the controlling medical school of the West, forms an era not in the medical history Of Ken tucky alone, but in the medical history of the Southwest. By Brown and Drake, his predecessors, the theory and prao tice of medicine had been taught as they are laid down in the books. These teachers were wedded to no system, but selected what seemed to them most judicious and valuable wherever they found it, Brown especially, as has before been remarked, changing his instructions from year to year as he was captivated by successive authors. Cooke came to the school with a theory and a practice Of his own. His students, instead of the nosologies and methods of their text-books, were startled by being introduced to a novel pathology under which diseases were to be arranged and treated. All was simplified in his hands. A number of the intelligent and inquisitive of the Class were struck with the novelty of the course pursued, and visited him, he says, during the winter, and were very urgent to know What doctrine or theory he had in View.
