Tuskaloosa AL: Alabama Insane Hospital 1874. Newspaper. 11 3/4 x 9 ¼ inches. 7 Issues: vol. 1 nos. 1-3 vol. 2 nos. 5 and 8 and vol. 3 nos. 9 and 10 each issue containing four pages apparently 21 issues in five volumes were published through 1876. This was the third magazine produced by patients in an American asylum the first in the south. The other two were the Asylum Journal Vermont Asylum for the Insane 1842-46 and the Opal New York Asylum 1850-1860. The content much of it dealing with the inner workings of the asylum and its needs includes articles from Darwinism to Spiritualism and engages arguments with the definitions of insanity and the treatments then in practice. Some of the articles are tinged with humor toward the hospital's employees from poetry on the perils of working as a nurse in a hospital for the insane to running an ad for a wife for an official of the hospital. Owen p. 993 No. 21 only his copy. OCLC locates two runs National Library of Medicine: Vol.1 no. 3 and Vol. 2 no. 5; Alabama Department of Archives and History: Vol. 1 nos. 1 &2 ; Vol. 2 nos. 7 & 8; Vol. 3 nos. 9 & 10; Vol. 4 no. 16; Vol. 5 nos. 17 & 18; Vol. 8 no. 21. The Alabama Insane Hospital was conceived under the influence of Dorothea Dix instrumental in the selection of Dr. Peter Bryce as its first superintendent in 1860 and Thomas Story Kirkbride its architect. Bryce 1834-1892 who had studied progressive ideas of treating the insane in Europe would head the institution until his death. The perennially underfunded hospital would prove self sufficient employing the patients to provide food heat and this newspaper both the editorial work and the printing process among other services reflecting the progressive belief of the time that activity settled the mind. Bryce and the hospital became known for innovative treatment of the mentally ill using a "therapeutic approach to treatment so called for its supposed ability to lead patients to an understanding and acceptance of 'right behavior'." The hospital accepted African-American patients including one who had been owned by Dr. Bryce but despite its progressive reputation in treatment the hospital showed the prejudices of the time by separating the patients by race. <br/><br/> Alabama Insane Hospital unknown books

1840s handwritten pharmaceutical notebook. Pennsylvania. Original marbled boards and cloth spine; Measures 4.5" x 8" inches. 79 handwritten pages in ink and pencil 1-69 hand-numbered; 150 pages total. The meticulous note-taker records copious medical recipes for various ailments and illnesses as well as the date source and doctor from whom the treatment method was acquired thus giving an amazingly precise and detailed record of contemporary medical knowledge and treatment protocol. Under "Uterine Hemorrhage" for example the writer notes first the ingredients then the administration then the source: "Rx Sulphate of Alum 3iij; sulphate of Magnesia 3xij; aromatic sulphuric Acid 3ij; water 3xig M. Dose 3j every four hours. If pain exists griss acetate of Morphia should be added to the whole.--Dr. Grettan of Killough Scot.- Bos. Med. Jour. May 1 1842." Entries are included for "Tic Douloureux" "Angina Pectoris" "Hysteria" "Opthalmic Diseases" "Sore Nipples" "Consumption" "Cancer" "Sea Sickness" "Gonorrhea" "Cholera" "Gout" "Antidotes for Poisons" and many more. Some of the entries go on for several pages with detailed notes about the application of various prescriptions. Also includes entries for "Writing Ink" "Hair Dye" "Ginger Beer" "Poor Man's Hand Soap" "A Very Brilliant Red Ink" and other such household amenities. In good condition. Boards showing through marbled covers at corners minor bumping to corners. Age-related toning and spotting to pages which are otherwise neat and without wrinkles or creases. Comes with 7 handwritten prescription slips. <br/><br/>18th century pharmacists were medical practitioners who treated patients directly. However the field of pharmacology was unregulated and otherwise-effective prescriptions were often corrupted by inaccurate dosages or ersatz ingredients. The founding of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy PCP in the 1800s is recognized as a radical first step forward in the development of a system of pharmaceutical practice in the United States. On March 13 1821 68 pharmacists signed the Constitution of the first pharmaceutical association in the United States in the Carpenters' Hall the same room as where the founding fathers signed the Declaration of Independence. The symbolism of the Carpenters' Hall backdrop was clear: American pharmacy would be following in the footsteps of the founding fathers and their constitutional framework. The PCP constitution included a strict code of ethics that would expel anyone from the college who adulterated medications and provided for a committee of inspection to verify the purity safety and effectiveness of medicines and a committee of equity to arbitrate disputes between member pharmacists. In 1824 the PCP published "carefully determined formulas" for the fabrication of formerly "secret-formula" patent medicines imported from the UK an essential step toward self-sufficient pharmaceutical manufacturing in the U.S. WSU History of Pharmacy. unknown books

The last major authorial undertaking by Osler 1849-1919 a massive compilation of medical and scientific papers by the most eminent physicians of the period chosen to reflect "a new era" in medicine. Osler took care to include works from outside the English-speaking world as noted in the Publisher's Note to Volume 1: ".it is more necessary in medicine than in any other sphere of human effort that the world-knowledge should be placed at the command of all. Physicians of the dominant language English have just cause for satisfaction in realizing that this is now to be accomplished in their own tongue and under the leadership of one of the best fitted by common consent to develop this idea in its most complete and fruitful manner.

Medicine Quackery
A Treatise on the Ideal Treatment of Nervous Diseases and Exhaustion in Men by Absorption
New York: Marston Remedy Company 1905. Revised Edition. <br /><br />16mo 6 3/8 x 4 1/2 inches; 162 x 113 mm 32 pages in stapled wrappers soft cover. <br /><br />Pamphlet from a company offering "medicated" suppositories and contraptions that purportedly treat men's sexual nervous and urinary disorders. <br /><br />One "treatment" involves cocoa butter. "The suppository now glides into the rectum with the most perfect ease by means of a little pressure from the finger and which is often important this method of rectal treatment leaves no traces to excite the curiosity of servants or others." page 10. <br /><br />While most of the "treatments" involve suppositories of one kind or another the company also offers devices to relieve men's suffering illustrations helpfully included. There's "Dr. Curling's Varicocele Truss" which supposedly treats pain in the scrotum. This we're told is preferable to surgery. "Several surgeons have been assassinated by patients whom they have thus made hoplessly sic impotent." page 23. <br /><br />There's also Marston's Urethral Tapers pencil-like devices that "soothe heal and at the same time destroy all germ life. They medicate the entire canal never stain the clothing and are rapid in action." So convenient you can carry them in your pocket. page 27. <br /><br />Marston Remedy Company was a defendant in a number of court cases. "Marston Remedy Company was owned by H.D. Van Leuven of New York. The company's advertising methods proved so outrageously fraudulent -- even for the period -- that in September 1906 the Postmaster-General denied the company the use of the U.S. mails." An Annotated Catalogue of the Edward C. Atwater Collection of American Popular Medicine and Health Reform Vol. III Supplement A-Z page 479. <br /><br />OCLC shows a single institutional holding of this pamphlet at the University of Rochester home of the Atwater Collection the Atwater copy appears to have been published earlier than our copy. Yale has a copy under the same title but by a different publisher and with double the page count of our copy or the Atwater copy. <b>RARE</b>. <br /><br />CONDITION: Light soiling to wrappers and heavy toning to pages. Very Good overall. Marston Remedy Company paperback books
