Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Medical Lexicon, a Dictionary of Medical Science: Containing a Concise Explanation of the Various Subjects and Terms of Physiology, Pathology, Hygiene, Therapeutics, Pharmacology, Obstetrics, Medical Jurisprudence, &C., With the French and Other Synonymes
Tm: present undertaking was suggested by the frequent complaints, made by the author's pupils, that they were unable to meet with information on numerous topics of professional inquiry, - especially of recent introduction, - in the medical diction aries accessible to them. It may, indeed, be correctly afirmed, that we have no dictionary of medical subjects and terms which can be looked upon as adapted to the state of the science. In proof of this, the author need but remark, that he has found occasion to add several thousand medical terms, which are not to be met with in the only medical lexicon at this time in circulation in the country.
