Still solid oversize hardcover. ; INSCRIBED by Solomon da Silva Solis-Cohen to Dr Samuel A Loewenberg in 1928: "For my friend & colleague ." "Solis-Cohen taught in 18871902 at the Philadelphia Polyclinic and in 18901892 at Dartmouth College. He was a professor of clinical medicine at Jefferson Medical College from 1902 to 1927, when he retired as professor emeritus." - Wikipedia. Loewenberg was a clinical professor also at Jefferson Medical College. "While we are here chiefly concerned with pharmacotherapeutics or drug therapy, the general principles to be discussed apply throught the whole domain of therapeutic practice. Our viewpoint is that of the practice of medicine; the agents of the materia medica and the principles of therapeutics being alike studied for the sake of their practical applications. The scope of our inqujiry thus not only includes, but exceeds, that of pharmacology, which science studies drugs and their powers without respect to their utilization. On the other hand, both in its descriptive work (pharmacognosy) and in its experimental investigations concerning the influence of drugs upon the living organism (pharmacodynamics), pure pharmacology frequently enters into greater detail than is necessary for our purpose. We are to take its results, compare them with clinical observations as to the influence of drugs upon the healthy and upon the sick, and from date of laboratory and bedside thus correlated, obtain indications for the rational use of medicaments under the condition of practice. Somewhat similar is the relation our studies hold with pharmacy. Details may be left to others, but we must know the major facts and cardinal principles, while beyond the knowledge required of the pharmacist we have to learn how best to prepare, associate and administer drugs to meet the necessities of treatment in a particular case of disease, with due regard to the individual peculiarities of the patient and to the special circumstances of his environment." - page 1, Chapter I: Object and Scope of Pharmacotherapeutics.
