Excerpt from Lectures on the Theory and Practice of Physic, Delivered in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the University of the State of New York
My Dear Sir:
I have carefully read the copy of the Lectures of the late Professor Hosack, which you had the kindness to send to me. The high expectations I had formed of their merits, have been fully realised. They embody a very large mass of curious and useful information, clearly and agreeably conveyed. Excepting some pathological doctrines, I find little in them to which I would object. The practical part I consider sound, or at least, it corresponds very much with my own views. Long and extensively engaged in the profession, and with his acute and discriminating mind, he could scarcely fail to arrive at just conclusions in whatever regards the management of disease. He deserves, and will no doubt rank, among the most authoritative of our writers on the subject. You have done well in publishing the work. No effort shall I spare to promote its distribution; and I mean especially to recommend it to the attention of my class.
