Abstract
THE object of the author of this work is to lay anew the foundations on which the principles and practice of the physician's art are based. The new foundations are the principles of morphology—morphology as expounded by Haeckel, Gegenbaur, and other great anatomists. Like all enthusiastic reformers, as one may infer from the following passage (p. 206), he has evidently suffered considerably at the hand of his Italian confreres:—
