An Ignorant Doctor Is The Aide-de-camp Of Death.

The Different Sorts Of Madness Are Innumerable.

Medicine Is The Science By Which We Learn The Various States Of The Human Body In Health And When Not In Health, And The Means By Which Health Is Likely To Be Lost And, When Lost, Is Likely To Be Restored Back To Health. In Other Words, It Is The Art Whereby Health Is Conserved And The Art Whereby It Is Restored After Being Lost. While Some Divide Medicine Into A Theoretical And A Practical [applied] Science, Others May Assume That It Is Only Theoretical Because They See It As A Pure Science. But, In Truth, Every Science Has Both A Theoretical And A Practical Side.

Medicine Deals With The States Of Health And Disease In The Human Body. It Is A Truism Of Philosophy That A Complete Knowledge Of A Thing Can Only Be Obtained By Elucidating Its Causes And Antecedents, Provided, Of Course, Such Causes Exist. In Medicine It Is, Therefore, Necessary That Causes Of Both Health And Disease Should Be Determined.
