Author Description

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Water-Cure, Vol. 2 of 7: A Concise Exposition of the Human Experience. And by a daily increasing professional correspondence, I find my sphere of usefulness continually widening. I by no means expect this little work to take the place of the valuable water-cure books now in the market; but it contains more particular directions to women, and treats more of their peculiar diseases, than any work I have seen. My mission has been to instruct and help woman. After spending several years in giving lectures to women on anatomy and physiology, I published the substance of these lectures in a book, as I now do the results of my subsequent labors in the cure of disease. I advise ladies who are interested in hygienic reform, to read all the Water Cure books they can obtain. I have seen no book on the subject that was not valuable. Dr. Gully's I think the best, and yet there are errors in that which I would like to see corrected. The Introduction to water-cure, written by Dr. Nichols, contains a brief and thorough ex position of the principles and results Of the hydropathic treatment.
