Excerpt from A Complete Pronouncing Medical Dictionary: Embracing the Terminology of Medicine and the Kindred Sciences, With Their Signification, Etymology, and Pronunciation, With an Appendix, Comprising an Explanation of the Latin Terms and Phrases Occurring in Medicine, Anatomy, Pharmacy, EtcThe work here offered to the public is designed to supply several wants which have been deeply felt by those commencing the study of medicine and the affiliated sciences.An acquaintance with the dead languages, or at least with Latin, was formerly, and in some parts of Europe is still, considered absolutely necessary for a graduate in medicine as well' as in the other learned professions. Although in the United States a clas sical education is not made an indispensable condition for conferring a medical degree, yet, so long as the great majority of professional terms are in Latin, some knowledge of this language may be said to be absolutely requisite for the medical student. The fact that multitudes of our young men commence the study of medicine without any previous acquaintance with Latin or Greek renders it important that the elementary works intended for the use of stu dents should be adapted to meet this exigency.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
