An essay on the gout : and all gouty affections incident to affect mankind. Comprizing the various natures, symptoms, and causes, thro' every branch and stage of the disease; demonstrating, in the clearest Manner, that the Air, Diet, and Exercise, when rightly adjusted, are Remedies the most sovereignly efficacious, both to asswage the gouty Pains, and relieve the Disease, under all its various Changes. To which is prefixed, A brief, historical discourse, concerning the great Antiquity of the Gout; proving, from incontestable Authorities, that it is a Disease chiefly confined to those Countries, Climates, and People, where Vice, Wealth, and Luxury, greatly prevail and abound.
