Excerpt from Hippopathology, Vol. 1: A Systematic Treatise on the Disorders and Lamenesses of the Horse, With Their Most Approved Methods of Cure; Embrancing the Doctrines of the English and French Veterinary Schools, the Opinions of Professors Coleman and Spooner, Director Girard, Hurtrel D
The Author offers the present production to the notice of the Public as a work in which the Principles of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery are deduced from their natural or legitimate sources - the Anatomy and Physiology of the Animal. Upon no other foundation can a rational practice be instituted for the Cure of Disease; and even this requires tempering by experience ere it is rendered suitable and effectual. The Authors experience is derived from twenty years service in the Army.
Next to the solicitude of rendering his work of value in a medical or practical point of view, the Author has felt desirous of adapting it for general use; and on that account, has refrained from the introduction of technical language beyond what appeared essential to the completion of his primary design, as well as refused admission to other Names for Diseases than those by which they are popularly known and understood: though these appellations he has, as occasion seemed to require, both qualified and explained.
