Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays on Determination of Blood to the Head
IF it be asked, why any new book be written on the abuse of blood-letting, after the nume rous attacks, especially those recently made by Dr. Hall, this is the reply. That a trea tise, having no farther commendation, will often tell, through simple novelty. To say that no fresh book needs be published, be cause the subject has already been exhausted, is to Vllify all literature. Theology might be supposed to have been drained to its ultimate idea. Yet every recent tract is read with avidity.
