Excerpt from Wharton and Stillé's Medical Jurisprudence, Vol. 3 In this volume, the sections between §1 and $262 have been revised by Dr. Samuel Ashhurst, and those between §265 and §586 by Dr. Wharton Sinkler. The chapters on Life Insurance and on Defects of Vision (including Color Blindness), which close the volume, are new. The portions of the work which bear on juridical law have been rearranged and in a large measure rewritten so as to incorporate in them recent English and American decisions.
