PREFACE. THE publication of these Lessons was undertaken in response to a frequently expressed desire on the part of my pupils, and, also, because I believe that there exists a very great demand for some such educational work. The notes taken by an intelligent student have been used as the basis of this little book, and the "Lessons" are published almost word for word as they were delivered. The colloquial style may be considered a defect, but this will, I am sure, be more than counterbalanced by the individuality of the teaching. That the publication of this little work may serve in some degree to conduce to the study of the Art of Prescribing is my very earnest hope. W. HANDSEL GRIFFITHS. 2, UPPER FITZWILLIAM STREET, Dublin. April, 1875. |
