Excerpt from Treatise on Spermatorrhea, Impotence, and Sterility I The author has had an extended experience in the particular line of diseases herein treated, and this experience has been embodied in the following pages. Those who are acquainted with him may think that the treatment is confined largely to the electrical side of it. While he has tried to give a very comprehensive résumé of the electrical treatment, he has endeavored to give a very complete description of the hygienic management, which is the keynote of the successful treatment of a large proportion of such cases, as well as the importance of the medical, mechanical, and hydropathic treatments, all of which have been fully discussed, and every detail thoroughly described. Of all the works the author has read treating on this subject, - which are many, - with only few exceptions the authors are surgeons, and have treated the subject from a surgical standpoint.
