Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive treatise on the study and practice of the Art of Medicine. It was written with the intention of standardizing treatment by providing a systematic method of classifying diseases. The author, a venerable and experienced physician, drew from the collective historical knowledge of medicine up to the date of publication. One might be surprised to learn that even in the 18th century, with all the advances that had been made in the practice of medicine to that date, there was still a great deal of uncertainty and disagreement between physicians over how to diagnose and treat diseases. The author sought to remedy this by creating a "nosology," or system of disease classification, designed to bring order to the field by organizing diseases into related groups based on their symptoms. A systematic approach based on accurate classification will allow practitioners to more easily predict the course of a given disease and prescribe the appropriate treatment. The book also delves into the causes of and cures for a wide array of diseases and medical conditions that were prevalent at the time of publication, including fevers, gout, rheumatism, and scurvy. This book is an invaluable resource for any student of medical history, and a fascinating read for anyone interested in the evolution of modern medical practices.
