Synopsis

A Second Essay On Burns, In Which An Attempt Is Made To Refute The Opinions Of Mr. Earle And Sir W. Farquhar Lately Advanced On The Supposed Benefit Of The Application Of Ice In Such Accidents: With Cases And Communications Confirming The Principles And Practice Brought Forward In A Former Essay by Edward Kentish. Edward Kentish argues for a unity between medicine and surgery and champions an active, stimulant-based approach to burn treatment over the then-popular cold-application methods. The work critiques Mr. Earle’s pamphlet on reducing the effects of fire and Sir Walter Farquhar’s advocacy of ice, presenting a body of cases, communications, and experimental reflections to support a theory that external and internal stimuli can guide healing. Kentish draws on contemporary surgical authorities, reports on burn injuries from naval and military surgeons, and includes a substantial appendix of case histories to illustrate the supposed superiority of his regimen. First published around 1800 in Newcastle, the text seeks to reform external medical practice and unify disciplinary boundaries in the healing arts.
