“The information contained in this Medical Library is based on the assumption that every man has a right to all the knowledge he can acquire, on every and all subjects, medicine not excepted.  The Medical Profession generally concedes, that the ignorant patient is much more difficult of treatment than the educated one, for as people become enlightened they gain confidence in the efforts of the physician, knowing that the strict obedience of his commands promotes the end desired – their own cure.”
