Book Description
Excerpt from A System of Physiologic Therapeutics, Vol. 4: A Practical Exposition of the Methods, Other Than Drug-Giving, Useful in the Prevention of Disease and in the Treatment of the Sick In this book will be found what is believed to be, on the whole, the most nearly complete account of the health resorts of the United States yet published. In its preparation free use has been made of the Bulletins of the United States Weather Bureau, and the United States Geological Survey, - especially the excellent Report on the Mineral Springs of the United States, by Dr. A. C. Peale, - of official publications of various States, of books and journal articles by many authors, of the valuable publications of the American Climatological Association, and of like sources of information; also private correspondence and oral communications have been laid under contribution; for all of which grateful acknowledgment is here made. Attention has likewise been given, as in Book I, to the many elements, other than physical or chemical ones, that help to constitute the availability of various stations as health resorts or as places of permanent residence. Much difficulty has attended the endeavor to make the compilation accurate. In many cases trustworthy data upon important subjects were not to be obtained; in other cases, personal observations alone were available. Both Dr. Hinsdale and the editor will therefore be glad to have their attention called to any errors of omission or of commission that may have occurred, and to receive descriptions of desirable resorts not mentioned in these pages. The natural advantages of the American continent, and of that large portion of it included in the United States, for climatic and mineral water health stations are not less than those of the Old World; but the systematic development of these advantages has scarcely begun. American physicians should turn their attention to the subject more strongly, and should endeavor to interest their enterprising neighbors in the business aspects of the matter.
