The various subjects outlined and the manner of their treatment are the result of the labor of the author which has been especially devoted to the principles of osteopathy during his course as teacher in the American School of Osteopathy for the past three years. In large part the work here presented is a revision of lectures delivered before the classes in Principles of Osteopathy.

"The work is divided into Parts I and II, indicating a difference in the nature and arrangement of the matter treated. This difference lies in the more general nature of the substance of Part 1, the more specific in Part. II. Certain fundamental propositions bearing on the general Problems of life, health, and disease are discussed in the former, while the deductions drawn therefrom are applied specifically in the latter to the various regions of the body."
