Excerpt from A Hand-Book on the Diseases of the Heart, and Their Homeopathic Treatment Hitherto, far too little attention has been given to the diseases to which the heart is subject, whether with respect to pathology, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is much to be regretted that there are so few physicians of any school, who can accurately diagnose even the simplest form of disease of that organ; and if this book proves to be the means of inducing any physician to study more closely this class of diseases, or causes one poor mortal to enjoy a few more years of life and health than he otherwise would have done.
