Dr. Rush's writing is characterized by a blend of empirical observation and philosophical inquiry, offering insights into the medical challenges of his time, including yellow fever, smallpox, and other prevalent diseases. He also addresses the importance of hygiene, diet, and lifestyle in maintaining health, and discusses the social and moral responsibilities of physicians.
