    pO those accustomed to treat diseases of the liver with remedies having an elective affinity for the organ itself, the contents of this volume must appear more or less self-evident. I refer more par- ticularly to the practitioners of scientific therapeutics usually called homoeopaths. But the practitioners of traditional medi- cine will find in my pages a great deal to interest them, and not a little that is new; new at least to them. Those of my readers who have a taste for the more strictly doctrinal part of my subject, I would refer to my small work entitled '' Diseases of the Spleen and their Remedies Clinically Illustrated, to which this is intended to be a companion volume.
