Nor indeed could the work have made its appearance so promptly, but for the assistance rendered by my friend and colleague, J. H. P. Frost, M. D., in preparing the physiological parts, description Of diseases, etc., and in carrying the whole through the press. Both the author and publisher desire to acknowledge the liberality of Messrs. Lindsay Blakiston in furnishing a considerable part of the illustrations employed in this work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
