Excerpt from Homoeopathic Therapeutics in Ophthalmology Ophthalmological literature is increasing so rapidly, as are the advances in pathology, surgery, physiology and anatomy, that books on those subjects soon become behind the times. Hence monographs are among the most valuable elements of an up to date library, largely because they do not waste shelf room by the repetition deemed essential in text books or by the necessity of retaining a book only a portion of which remains up to date. For this reason, and because it is generally recognized now that many eye cases require for their cure constitutional, internal, medication rather than or supplemented by local or surgical treatment, the author has confined himself to the facts of our homœopathic materia medica, the pathogenetic symptoms of drugs and clinical experience of their curative action. These will be of practical value generations hence, as they are now and have been for generations in the past. The systematic arrangement of the materia medica will facilitate ready reference. Drug characteristics are given because with their aid a much more successful prescription may be made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
