Can Onions Cure Ear-ache?: Medical Advice from 1769
William Buchan
Although plenty of Dr Buchan's advice is still sound today, much is amusing, and some is downright dangerous, this edited selection from one of the first medical self-help manuals gives a fascinating insight into popular treatments of the eighteenth century, derived both from folklore and the emerging medical science of the day.
