Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual of Syphilis and the Venereal Diseases
In the early part of this century the prejudices of the people of most English-speaking countries and the odium connected with the acquisition and inheritance of venereal disease extended even to the professional men interested in their treatment. As a consequence, this department of medicine was largely relegated to the charlatan, who, under the control of ignorance and avarice, contributed to the exaggeration and confusion which still cloud the minds of many when they consider the subject.
