Excerpt from The Chemistry of Medicines, Practical: A Text and Reference Book for the Use of Students, Physicians, and Pharmacists, Embodying the Principles of Chemical Philosophy and Their Application to Those Chemicals That Are Used in Medicine and in PharmacyThe fact that the first edition of this work was entirely disposed of within a month from the time of its publica tion, taken in connection with the many complimentary and favorable notices ofit from the foremost medical and pharmaceutical journals of our country, as well as from numerous teachers of medicine and of pharmacy, has led me to hope that it may meet with a more extensive cir culation, and prove of greater utility, than I could at first reasonably anticipate. I have therefore been induced to present this second and improved edition.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
