Physical disquisitions: demonstrating the real causes of the blood's morbid rarefaction and Stagnation, and that the Cure of Fevers, Acute and Chronic Diseases, in general, can be effected with greater Certainty than by the established Rules of the Practice of Physic: The Theory confirmed by an authentic Account of curing various Distempers, in America and London, wherein these Rules proved abortive: The Symptoms and Nature of each Case commented upon, and the Prescriptions stated in English. The Whole discovering, that the Simple Laws of Nature, and the Analogy of Diseases, have been very much perplexed in the Prolix and too Metaphysical Reasonings of numerous Authors, and that some Regulations in the Practice of Physic would obviate many Deaths. Humbly inscribed to His Grace Charles, Duke of Richmond. By John Tennent, M.D.
