A Discourse On Self-Limited Diseases is a book written by Jacob Bigelow in 1835. It is a comprehensive analysis of the concept of self-limited diseases, which refers to illnesses that resolve on their own without the need for medical intervention. Bigelow explores the nature of these diseases, their causes, and the mechanisms by which they resolve.The book is divided into three parts. In the first part, Bigelow defines self-limited diseases and discusses their prevalence in society. He also examines the historical context of the concept, tracing its origins back to ancient medical texts.In the second part, Bigelow delves into the scientific basis of self-limited diseases. He discusses the various theories that have been put forward to explain the phenomenon, including the role of the immune system and the body's natural healing mechanisms.In the third and final part, Bigelow explores the practical implications of self-limited diseases for medical practice. He argues that physicians should be cautious in their use of drugs and other treatments, as many illnesses will resolve on their own without intervention. He also discusses the importance of patient education and the need for doctors to communicate effectively with their patients.Overall, A Discourse On Self-Limited Diseases is a pioneering work in the field of medical science. It provides a thorough and insightful analysis of an important concept that continues to influence medical practice to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
