Book Description
This is a catalogue of the Edward C. Atwater Collection of rare books dealing with "popular medicine" in early America which is housed at the University of Rochester Medical School library. The books described in the catalogue were written by physicians and other professionals to provide information for the non-medical audience. The books taught human anatomy, hygiene, temperance and diet, how to maintain health, and how to cope with illness especially when no professional help was available. The books promoted a healthy lifestyle for the readers, giving guidance on everything from physical fitness and recreation to the special health needs of women. The collection consists of works dealing with reproduction [from birth control to delivering and caring for a baby], venereal disease, home-nursing, epidemics, and the need for public sex education. These books, covering areas largely ignored by the medical profession, made important contributions to the health of the American public, and the collection is a vital piece of medical history. The collector is Edward C. Atwater, Professor Emeritus of Medicine and the History of Medicine at the University of Rochester Medical School. Christopher Hoolihan is History of Medicine Librarian at the University of Rochester Medical School's Edward G. Miner LIbrary.

Excerpt from Medical Reform: Being an Examination Into the Nature of the Prevailing System of Medicine; And an Exposition of Some of Its Chief Evils; With Allopathic Revelations; A Remedy for the Evil The peculiar feature of our system, which distinguishes it from what is called the or thodox branch of the profession, is sustained by an ample array of erudite and convincing literature: enough, we think, to commend it to the notice and even serious consideration of all medical men who have a single desire for the development of truth and the advance ment of science; so that they are left with out excuse, and remain subject to judgment they who are blind le tthem be blind still/ But while this is the case, there is a decided lack of works which may appeal directly to the popular, or non-professional, mind of the community. The people, as a whole, will necessarily cling to an ancient faith, whether. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
