| Summary |
"Jaundice: Its Pathology and Treatment" by George Harley is a scientific publication likely written during the mid-19th century. The book extensively discusses the condition of jaundice, exploring its underlying causes, mechanisms, and treatment strategies, while also integrating principles of physiological chemistry relevant to liver and pancreatic diseases. The opening of the book introduces the author’s perspective on jaundice, emphasizing that it should not be regarded as a disease in itself, but rather as a significant symptom of various underlying pathological conditions. It outlines the complexity of jaundice, detailing how it is linked to multiple health issues ranging from liver diseases to general systemic afflictions, thus necessitating an understanding of its true mechanisms for effective treatment. The preface sets the stage for the monograph by acknowledging the rapidly advancing field of medical science and the importance of integrating modern chemical and physiological knowledge in clinical practices concerning jaundice.
