“WHAT THEY SAY”—NOTICES OF THE PRESS.
We give a few of the favorable notices which this work has received:
It possesses the most practical utility of any of the author’s works, and is well adapted to give the reader an accurate idea of the organization and functions of the human frame.—New York Tribune.
The work is admirably simple, clear, and full, and no popular work that we ever saw had half its claims to notice. We hope it may have a wide circulation. Its mission is a most important one. It lies at the foundation of all other missions of reform. Let the world be informed in regard to the laws of health, and every other reform will have its way cleared. Till then, every effort for moral and intellectual improvement can be only partially and feebly effective.—Boston Ledger.
Without the fear of our family physician before our eyes, we say that this is a very good book to have in families. It contains much valuable instruction in the art of preserving and restoring health, which every man of common sense, who understands anything about the human frame, will see at once is, and must be, sound and reliable. It might, almost any day, be the means of saving a valuable life. We are honestly of the conviction that every household in the land would lessen its complaints and doctor’s bills, if they would read it and follow its suggestions.—Boston Congregationalist.
The different cases upon which it treats number over nine hundred in each of which the symptoms, the cause, and the manner of treatment are given in full.—Clinton Tribune.
There is not a subject relating to health but what it treats upon, in an able manner.—Howard Gazette.
Its 516 pages abound with thousands of facts and suggestions of the highest importance to all.—Christian Inquirer.
