Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from How to Get Well and How to Keep Well: A Family Physician and Guide to Health
Prof. J. Russell Reynolds, M.D., in his System of Medicine recently published in three volumes, says: The attempt to define disease must be afaz'lure until we are possessed of a satisfactory definition of health. He says this in the first para graph of the first chapter of his book. Then, after confessing his total ignorance both of disease and of health, he proceeds to spread his learned ignorance over three thousand pages, and to charge his brother physicians fifteen dollars each for what he don't know about the science of medicine; for if he don't know what disease is, he can't know how to cure it.
