SELF-PRESERVATION.—A Medical Treatise
on the Functions and Disorders of the Generative System,

from vicious habits acquired during the critical passage from youth
to Manhood, with practical observations on the Physiology of Mar-
riage in its social, moral, and physical relations. To which are added
remarks on the wonders of the Microscope in revealing the hidden

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D.,

Matriculated Member of the University of Edinburgh, Honorary
Pr Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, Licentiate of
!Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con-
sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses,
which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other efftss of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is
Particularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of
their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazarded
the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is
entitled.
It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are
r rinelpies of personal management which cannot be violated with-
( ut incurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and regret suc-
ceed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how those penalties
may be mitigated, bow the sting' of their bitterness may be removed,
and how tbe evil and its consequences maybe avoided, and, above all,
that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional
derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure.
