The authors present a conception of pathology from two essential notions: the formation of foreign bodies and the tendency to an illness similar to congenital consumption. They also offer some general elements as to how to conduct a therapy.
Part 2 shows how these elements correspond directly to the conceptions of the human being in health or illness according to the Collot d’Herbois’ approach.

The the elements of diagnosis and therapy are assembled for the different types of depression related to the cardinal organs.
