Thoughts On General And Partial Inoculations is a book written by Thomas Dimsdale in 1776. The book is a detailed analysis of the practice of inoculation, which was a medical procedure used to protect people against smallpox.

The book is divided into two parts, the first part being an account of the history and principles of inoculation, and the second part being a detailed explanation of the different methods of inoculation. Dimsdale discusses the advantages and disadvantages of general and partial inoculations and provides a comprehensive guide on how to perform each procedure.The book also contains a detailed account of Dimsdale's experiences in Russia and his interactions with Catherine the Great. He describes the challenges he faced in introducing inoculation to Russia and the success of his efforts in reducing the number of smallpox cases in the country.Overall, Thoughts On General And Partial Inoculations is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine and the practice of inoculation. Dimsdale's expertise and experience in the field make this book a must-read for anyone interested in this important medical procedure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
