Abstract

Medical Electricity

August 30, 1866 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Medical Electricity: Embracing Electro-Physiology and Electricity as a Therapeutic, with Special Reference to Practical Medicine; showing the most approved Apparatus, Methods, and Rules for the Medical Uses of Electricity in the Treatment of Nervous Diseases," by Alfred C. Sarratt. The book is lamentably deficient in clear ideas of the science to which he has evidently given a great deal of labor, and that he has written a book which, for obscurity of diction, viciousness of style, and badness of English and contain some glaring error of fact or of grammar.
