Synopsis
Excerpt from A Dissertation on the Mutual Influence of Habits and Disease: Submitted as an Inaugural Thesis, to the Examination of the Reverend John Andrews D. D. Provost (Pro Tempore), The Trustees and Medical Faty of the University of Pennsylvania, on the Fifth Day of June, 1804, for the Degree of Doctor of Medicine
The great and universal influence of custom, or reition of action, upon the operations of the living body, has long been known and acknowledged by the observant part of mankind; but the applica tion of this important principle to the prevention and cure of diseases has been too much neglected by physicians. The justly celebrated Doctor darwin has, indeed, thrown great light on the subject of associate motions, and the diseases of association; but much remains yet to be known respecting the power of disease in destroying the habits of the system, and also of the influence which the intro duction of new habits, or a recurrence to old ones, where they have been violated, may have in removing diseases.
