Description

About The Book : This little work should have reached a fourth edition may be taken as pretty clear indication that ithas met a recognised want amongst our Indian fellow-subjects, for whose instruction and guidance it was originally issued. To render it worthy of continued favour, and to make it additionally useful, has been myanxious endeavour. Of any merit which this edition may be found to possess over the preceding one, a very large portion isdue to Dr. J. E. T. Aitchison, C.I.E., Surgeon-Major in H.M. Indian (Bengal) Medical Service, who, witha liberality that demands my warmest thanks, placed at my disposal an elaborate MS. commentary on the Third Edition, embodying his own professional experience in India (extending over many years), and supplying the vernacular names of the various drugs in the Punjábí, Kashmírí, and Leh languages. Of this document it need hardly be said I have availed myself largely, my only regret being that I could not insertit in extenso, but to have done this would greatly have exceeded the prescribed limits of the work. As itis, Dr. Aitchison has laid me under a vast obligation, which I am only too happy to have this opportunity of acknowledging. Five new articles have been added to the List of Drugs: two at the suggestion of Dr. Aitchison; namely,(1) Sugar, and (2) Kerosene Oil, which latter, owing to its extensive use for lighting purposes during the past few years, is now obtainable in nearly every bazaar in the country; the other three being the (3) Cinchona Febrifuge (Quinetum), (4) Petroleum, and (5) Rock Salt.
