[101] In the preface Dr. Percival says: “This work was originally entitled ‘Medical Jurisprudence,’ but some friends having objected to the term Jurisprudence it has been changed to Ethics.” An unfinished and unpublished edition, written prior to 1794 and containing Chapter IV., was printed about 1800 (see Editor’s Preface, p. 2, and note, Author’s Preface, pp. 25, 26, ed. Oxford, 1849).
