" It gives everything pertaining to the practice of medicine in a concise 

 manner, and in a more elaborate way than one would expect from a compend. 

 It is much superior to our numerous hand-books of treatment, for, 

 besides giving all that is known concerning the application of remedies, it also 

 gives a brief and very intelligent account of the synonym, definition, causes, 

 pathological anatomy, symptoms, diagnosis, and prognosis of all the diseases 

 described in the book, and, therefore, cannot fail to meet with a welcome 

 from every practitioner who is pushed for time and who desires to gather 

 the latest ideas on the practice of medicine in a plain and practical form." —
