Title: The Greater Diseases of the Liver: Jaundice, Gall-Stones, Enlargements, Tumors, and Cancer: And Their Treatment
Author: J. Compton Burnett Publisher: Hahnemann Publishing House (Philadelphia) Printing Year: 1891 Condition/Details: Bound in green cloth with bright gilt embossing, this antique volume is a rare medical work. The author writes in his preface: " To those accustomed to treat diseases of the liver with remedies having an elective affinity for the organ itself, the contents of this volume must appear more or less self-evident. I refer more particularly to the practitioners of scientific therapeutics usually called homoeopaths. But the practitioners of traditional medicine will find in my pages a great deal to interest them, and not a little that is new; new at least to them." The work is illustrated with many photographs and drawings. The volume shows light external age/wear, and is solidly bound with clean pages. The book measures approximately 4.5" x 6.5" and contains 186 pages. Shipping cost (within the U.S.) for this lot will be: $4.50 ImagesClick on thumbnails to see larger images:
