Book Description

Excerpt from A Manual of Medical Jurisprudence for Bengal and the North-Western Provinces The remarks embodied in this volume first appeared as a "Report on Medical Jurisprudence in the Bengal Presidency," published in the Indian Annals of Medical Science, for October 1854. They are now reprinted, by direction of the Government of India. In the present edition, however, the original article has received so many and such extensive additions and alterations, that it may be said to have been almost entirely re-written. The chief of these additions consists in the insertion of a great number of important facts and cases, chiefly derived from the printed Reports of the Court of Nizamut Adawlut of the North-Western Provinces, - these quotations have, for greater facility of reference, been marked in the notes by distinctive letters. It is hoped that these additions will render the work equally useful, to Judicial and Medical Officers, in Bengal and the North-Western Provinces.
