Hahnemann Publising HOUSE ; 1889, pages 3200
THE preparation of this Handbook was commenced immediately after the completion
of the Encyclopedia, and in accordance with a desire, strongly and unanimously
expressed by a number of prominent physicians at a dinner given by the publishers to the
Author of that work, to possess a condensed volume for ready reference. The first labor
undertaken was to correct the errors and supply the ojnissions which to some extent
marred the Encyclopedia; this work proved to be gigantic, involving, as it did, a review of
nearly every symptom in comparison with the originals; the wdiole Encyclopedia could,
.almost as well, have been re-cast.
