THERAPEUTICS.

Adjunct Professor Flippin.

The subject of Therapeutics is taken up among the studies of the
fourth year. The range of the work embraces both general and special
therapeutics, whether rational or empirical, but a constant effort will be
made throughout to trace those general underlying principles, the existence
of which alone enables this subject to be called a science. The
method pursued will be that of taking up in order the perversions of the
various organs and functions rather than the specific forms of disease.
