Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Vindication of the Thomsonian System of the Practice of Medicine on Botanical Principles: As Originated by Samuel Thomson, and Continued by His Coadjutors It is true I have been persecuted since my arrival in this city, together with my brother, who resides in Ged desburgh, with a relentless ardour, which would be more commendable in a better cause, but which, in the pres ent case, I cannot but look upon as a shameful derelie tion from the principles of charity, and disgraceful to humanity. My brother's practice has been very exten sive, and so extraordinarily successful that he has lost but six cases out of one thousand two hundred andfifty, as [am informed by a record of his practice, in four years and a half. Five of the unsuccessful cases were such as were given over as incurable by the regular physicians and yet, what think you, honest reader, when I inform you that through the envy and malice of the Doctors, he has been indicted at various times for the murder of three of those patients! But as yet they never have dared to bring him to trial. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
