Excerpt from A Treatise on the Diseases of the Chest and on Mediate Auscultation

To estimate fairly the correctness of M. Laennec's statements, we ought, also, to take into account his vast experience, and his unequalled practical tact, which was the admiration of every one who had opportunities of observing his examinations. In no case, even the most Obscure, did he shrink from pronouncing his opinions, and fixing his diagnosis; and rarely indeed was he mistaken. These circumstances ought to make his successors long hesitate before they call in question the correctness of his statements, even although they should fail to verify them, by repeated experience; and incline them rather to doubt their own capacity in exploring, and the accuracy or acuteness Of their perceptive powers, than the fidelity of the records which he has bequeathed to them.

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Diseases of the Chest and on Mediate Auscultation

With all its imperfections as a translation, I have no hesitation in pronouncing the following work to be one of the most valuable that has ever been presented to the medical profession in this country. The original Treatise will remain an imperishable monument of the genius and industry of the author; and the discovery of which it treats, will entitle him to a distinguished rank among the benefactors of mankind. As a standard work on the pathology and diagnosis of the diseases of the chest, it is not only without an equal, but may be considered as almost perfect in its kind. Much, no doubt, will hereafter be discovered that will modify and improve the delineations of disease which he has left us, but their great outlines must remain, unalterable as nature itself.

To be convinced of the vast importance of auscultation as a means of diagnosis, it is only necessary to peruse the present treatise; and I can offer no more powerful incentive to the reader, than to add my humble testimony in support of every statement contained in it, which I have had an opportunity of verifying. Several forms of disease there recorded, have not, as yet, come under my observation, and in some of the more common affections, I have not hitherto had occasion to notice every one of the signs described; but in no case have I met with any circumstance, either of a positive or negative kind, which could give me the slightest reason to doubt any essential parts of the author's statements.

At the same time, it would be exacting too much from the weakness of humanity, to expect, that the author of Mediate Auscultation should, in no case, have yielded to the enthusiasm naturally inspired by the consciousness of so great a discovery.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive text presenting a comprehensive look at thoracic health as penned by a leading medical mind of the early 19th century, offering a detailed account of respiratory illness and its treatment from one of the most adept clinicians of the pre-antibiotic era. The author's focused expertise is evident not only in the richness of the text but his innovative advancements to the field of medicine which laid the foundation for modern physical diagnosis and management of pulmonary and cardiac disease. Beyond an in-depth exploration of pathology, signs and symptoms, this book also delves into the mental and moral nature of the patient, providing a remarkably holistic examination of the patient experience for a book of its time. One might be surprised the text does not appear denser and more archaic in its diction, as its insights stand the test of time and demonstrate a surprisingly advanced understanding of symptomatology and disease progression. The author's tireless work in the field of thoracic disease has had a ripple effect, which continues to be felt in modern medicine today. Even if only touching on some of the book's central ideas and arguments, this summary may give the reader a glimpse into the value this book will offer to their practice and the wealth of practical knowledge it has preserved for today's medical practitioners. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
