A FOURTH EDITION, ENLARGED AND CORRECTED, OF
THE PRINCIPLES OF PHYSIOLOGY
APPLIED TO THE
PRESERVATION OF HEALTH,
AND TO THE IMPROVEMENT OF
PHYSICAL AND MENTAL EDUCATION.
By ANDREW COMBE, M.D.
FELLOW OF THE ROYAL COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS OF EDINBURGH, AND
CONSULTING PHYSICIAN TO THEIR MAJESTIES THE KING
AND QUEEN OF THE BELGIANS.
“The work of Dr Combe is, to a great extent, we think, original.”—“The style is so plain, and the arguments so convincing, that no person can fail to perceive how intimately his health and happiness are connected with the truths which the author has endeavoured to enforce.”—“The aim of the author has been to speak to the whole community.”—“His book most admirably applies to persons of all conditions, and to every variety of situation.”—Quart. Journal of Education, Oct. 1834.
“This little work, though not designed for the medical profession, may prove very useful to the medical student—perhaps to many medical practitioners. Be this as it may, it is calculated to prove of eminent service to the reading and more intelligent portions of the public at large.”—Medico-Chirurg. Review, No. XLI.
“We would strongly recommend the perusal of Dr Combe’s excellent work; it is far superior to any of the kind that we have met with.”—Dr Clark in Cyclop. of Pract. Medicine, Part XXIII.
“We are refreshed and delighted with a book that, after perusal, is associated in our minds with much instruction.”—London Med. and Surg. Journal, No. CXXXIV.
“The valuable series of the Family Library embraces no work that bids fairer to acquire—and certainly no number which deserves—a wider popularity.”—Review of American Edition in the Knickerbocker, or New York Monthly Magazine, Aug. 1834.
“We should have been contented to have left the merits of this volume to the decision of journals whose more immediate province it is to discuss such matters; but on looking over the book we have found so much to interest us, and so much that is of importance to our readers to know, that we feel we should have neglected a duty had we omitted to recommend it to the public.”—Monthly Magazine, Oct. 1834.
