Book Description

Excerpt from Some Remarks on Dr. O. W. Holmes's Lectures on Homeopathy and Its Kindred Delusions: Communicated to a Friend Your highly esteemed favor of the l6th inst, i received with mingled emotions. Ihad already perused Dr, Holmes's lectures on Homeopathy and its kindred delusions, and I think his bookseller may thank me for the sale of perhaps twenty copies of the work. Ihave recommended it heartily to every one, without either comment or censure. The effect produced by.it on some was to make them doubt, others felt contempt for it, and two or three enjoyed in it' beforehand an excellent polemic discussion. It was not my intention to check by a word or a fact the favorable im pressions which Dr. Holmes has made by his ingenuity and his learning.
