Book Description
Excerpt from Doctor and Patient The essays which compose this volume deal chiefly with a variety of subjects to which every physician must have given more or less thought. Some of them touch on matters concerning the mutual relation of physician and patient, but are meant to interest and instruct the laity rather than the medical attendant. The larger number have from their nature a closer relation to the needs of women than of men. It has been my fate of late years to have in my medical care very many women who, from one or another cause, were what is called nervous. Few of them were so happily constituted as to need from me neither counsel nor warnings. Very often such were desired, more commonly they were given unsought, as but a part of that duty which the physician feels, a duty which is but half fulfilled when we think of the body as our only province.

Book Description
Excerpt from Doctor and Patience It is a timely and human document that Dr. Hays has put together in Doctor and Patience. Most medical schools turn out the medical student of to-day having taught him much of diagnosis, little of therapeutics, and still less of medical ethics. The science of medicine is taught today as thoroughly as our scientific knowledge permits, but the rules and laws of conduct governing the profession in their rela tion to each other and the peculiar professional relations between the doctor and his patient, are left for each individual student to acquire by experience as he goes along. Formerly, when the preceptor system was in vogue and every young student attached himself to some older physician, each one acquired the traditions of the profession and absorbed the result of the elder's experience in life and was thus saved many mistakes that he otherwise might have made. To - day, necessarily, much of the science of medicine is taught by men who live a labora tory existence out of contact with the sick or.

Book Description
Excerpt from Physician and Patient: Or a Practical View of the Mutual Duties, Relations and Interests of the Medical Profession and the Community The forms which quackery assumes are endless; but the material out of which they are evolved is essentially the same in all ages and in all countries. There are certain medical errors which are common to man everywhere and in every con dition. It is these which constitute the material of quackery, whether it appear among the savage or the civilized, the rude or the refined, the illiterate or the learned. One object of this book is to develop these fundamental errors, and to show the modus operandi by which the genius of imposture has produced from them the fantastic and ever-changing shapes of empiti I notice particularly some of the specific forms of quackery which are now prevalent, not because they differ essentially from those which have preceded them, but because they have a present interest to the reader.

Book Description
Excerpt from Tales of a Physician I questioned the young lady with an air of as much cheerfulness as I could. Assume, as to her malady; but I soon discovered, by the indifferent manner in which she answered me, that she had little faith in any remedy that medical skill could suggest. I found, however, that she laboured under extreme nervous irritability; and, having prescribed such medicines as I deemed proper, I took my leave. I was followed down the stairs by Mrs. Downing, a lady who appeared to possess the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, and to be most affectionately attached to her daughter; con cerning whose complaint she anxiously inquired my opinion. I requested leave to suspend my judgment until I had made another visit, which I proposed to do on the following day.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Patient's View Point These conditions exist and cannot be ignored. Shall we allow the enemy of the legitimate physician to invade the sacred precincts of the practice of medicine, using as his entering wedge an aspect in the care of the sick which we have come to ignore; or shall we, true to our trust, treat our patient as a man who is sick, instead of looking upon him merely as the possessor of an interesting disease? In our consideration of the patient's viewpoint we must penetrate more deeply than the mere visual requirements which such an angle might imply. The patient's viewpoint comprises primarily his best interests, the consideration due him, which is by virtue of his lack of medical training beyond his ken. The patient's viewpoint can only be adequately embraced by a medical mind, endowed with the patience to return to its pre-medical point of View. For each error which the author venti lates, a remedy is offered which experience has shown will heal the wounds to which it is applied. Men have enjoyed the isms of the faddists as intellectual recreation. The World War, however, brought out the inadequacy of a fad as death's companion and men are reaching for essential truths.
