Excerpt from The Diseases of Infancy and Childhood: For the Use of Students and Practitioners of MedicineThe arrangement of the book differs somewhat from that of other works on the subject. The space given to nutrition, to its derangements, and to the diseases resulting therefrom, is, I think, not out of propor tion to their importance. There can be little question regarding the propriety of placing rickets and scurvy in this class. It is hoped that the plan of grouping in a single chapter the various therapeutic measures use ful in early life may aid the reader who wishes to consult the book on these points. In the parts relating to treatment, great, but I think not undue, stress has been laid upon diet and hygienic measures, since in them rather than in drug-giving lies the secret of success, certainly in all disorders of digestion and nutrition.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
