The Thomsonian System of Medicine: With Complete Rules for the Treatment of Disease; Also a Short Materia Medica (Classic Reprint)

Preface. In compiling this work, I do not wish the reader to think that it is wholly the product of my brain, but rather wish it to be understood that I am acting in the capacity of compiler. I have taken many thoughts from such men as Dr. Thomson, the founder of the system, and from Drs. Comfort, Greer, Lyle and others, and have clothed them in a new dress so as to make one complete and harmonious whole, always standing by such things as I know to be absolute facts, and never allowing anything of a theoretical nature to enter. I have proven all things by my own extensive practice and know that what I give to the reader are facts. In many places I give the system just as it was taught by Dr. Thomson, without adding anything to it, as nothing could be added that would add to the value of it and my only excuse is, that I do not wish the work started by Dr. Thomson to pass unnoticed. In nearly every case when I quote another author I give full credit and, therefore, I cannot be accused of stealing.
