Description

Excerpt from Elements of the Materia Medica, and Therapeutics, Vol. 1 The following Elementary Treatise has been prepared for the use of the class, in attendance upon the Lectures, in the Medical College of the State of south-carolina. Such a work would seem superfluous at the present time, abounding in Treatises upon almost every subject and it would not have been undertaken but from the author's connec tion with the College. In this relation, it furnishes the lecturer with a work to which he can refer his pupils, as a companion and assistant, during the period of their studies. The succession of Lectures with which the student is daily occupied, renders it proper, that the course of studies be facilitated by every practicable method. In no depart ment are such facilities more required, than in the Materia Medica which being addressed more particularly to the memory, requires all the aid which can be brought to its support. In addition, he hopes, that in his arrangement of his subject, and the articles, in the expo sition given of the operations of medicines, and the Therapeutics proper, he has been able to add much to the information usually found in the Treatises adopted in the several schools. The Introductory Lectures, comprise, in a great degree, matter not to be found in any of them, in his View, so important, that it has always been a subject of surprise, that they should have been over looked.
