Excerpts

Lecture notes

While the trustees of the Boston Medical Library concentrated on acquiring current medical literature, some anomalies crept in. This volume of student notes in a scribe's hand from the lectures of English physician George Fordyce appears to be the only manuscript item in the collection. The notes, in eighteen volumes, cover over 1,500 pages and concern diseases and fevers.
