Item description from seller

A scarce, illustrated monograph on kidney disease by Milner Fothergill who proposes vaso-renal change in place of Brights Disease. Nine inches tall hardcover in the publishers terra cotta cloth binding, stamped brightly in gilt. With 219 pages, 19 illustrations (including 2 chromolithographs). And numerous ads in the rear of the book.This is a rather uncommon book, as I have never seen another copy. A very handsome copy with beveled edges and bright gilt stamping on the front boards and on the spine. Light wear to the top and the bottom of the spine ends. Fothergill, son of a surgeon, was born at Morland, Westmorland, on 11 April 1841, studied at the University of Edinburgh, and there graduated M.D. 1865.[1] He afterwards studied at Vienna and Berlin and began professional work as a general practitioner at Morland.[1] Soon after moved to Leeds, and in 1872 came to London, where he was admitted as a member of the Royal College of Physicians and endeavoured to get into practice as a physician.[1] He obtained appointments at two small hospitals, the City of London Hospital for Diseases of the Chest and the West London Hospital; but when asked some years later how he throve, replied, "The private patient seems to me to be an extinct animal."[1]Among Fothergill's works are The Heart and its Diseases, The Practitioner's Handbook of Treatment, The Physical Factor in Diagnosis, Vaso renal Change versus Bright's Disease, and his posthumous The Town Dweller: His Needs and His Wants. In his writings his expressions about those with whom he did not agree are violent, and he often made positive general assertions without sufficient grounds for them; but he sometimes admitted his errors, and struggled hard with numerous difficulties in life.[1]The Dictionary of National Biography records that "a distinguished lecturer on materia medica" has expressed the opinion that the most valuable of Fothergill's writings are An Essay on the Action of Digitalis, written in his early life, and The Antagonism of Therapeutic Agents, and what it teaches, published in 1878.[1]He was a man of enormous weight, with a large head and very thick neck, and so continued till he died of diabetes, from which and from gout he had long suffered.[1] He resided in Henrietta Street, Cavendish Square, London, and there died on 28 June 1888.[1] (Wikipedia).
