Excerpt from Talks to My Patients: Hints on Getting Well and Keeping Well
The book is not intended to do away with doctors, but to aid the young wife when there is no experienced mother or intelligent nurse at hand; to advise in emergencies, or to guide in those matters of delicacy with which woman's life is so replete. The best physicians often feel the lack of some one able to note symptoms, vary treatment, and guide when they are not with the patient. In short, good nursing is the better part of doctoring; indeed, often supersedes the need of a physician.
So this is not a medical book, not a learned book, not a show of science, and I trust not unscientific. It will savor little of the library, more of every-day life. A simple com pend of such motherly hints as seem to be needed, and such as, from my long care of the sick, I have found available.
