In this book, Black recounts his experiences and observations as a doctor during a time when medical science was rapidly evolving and the profession was undergoing significant changes.The book is divided into chapters that cover various aspects of Black's career, from his early years as a medical student to his later work as a surgeon and physician. He discusses the challenges he faced as a doctor, including the difficulties of treating patients in rural areas and the limitations of medical knowledge at the time.Black also provides insights into the social and cultural context of medicine during this period, including the role of women in the profession and the impact of the Civil War on medical practice. He also shares his thoughts on the ethical and moral issues that doctors faced, such as the use of anesthesia and the treatment of mental illness.Overall, Forty Years In The Medical Profession, 1858-1898 is a fascinating and informative account of the life and work of an important figure in American medicine. It offers a unique perspective on the history of medicine and the challenges faced by doctors in the 19th century, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine or the evolution of the medical profession.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
