Excerpt from Cooley's Cyclopædia of Practical Receipts and Collateral Information in the Arts, Manufactures, Professions, and Trades Including Medicine, Pharmacy, Hygiene, and Domestic Economy, Vol. 1: Designed as a Comprehensive Supplement to the Pharmacopoeia and General Book of Reference for the Manufacturer, Tradesman, Amateur, and Heads of FamiliesThe Veterinary Medicine has been considerably modified and brought more into harmony with modern practice. The Domestic Medicine has been advisedly reduced, and detailed accounts of many diseases and modes of treatment have been removed in all cases in which the supervision of a qualified medical practitioner is necessary or desirable. The gaps thus caused have been more than filled by practical information on first aid to the sick and injured.The general receipts throughout the work have been carefully revised and largely added to, and it is believed much increased 1n practical value.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
