Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Thomsonian Materia Medica, or Botanic Family Physician: Comprising a Philosophical Theory, the Natural Organization and Assumed Principles of Animal and Vegetable Life The fact is irresistable then, that the dead languages for the practitioner, unexplained to the sick, are unnecessary; and that the honest physician will never use them to de ceive, with regard to the articles of medicine he may be giving to his patient. Would it not be attended with much less trouble for the physician, to induce his patient to take a dose of conium maculatum, or datura stramom'um, than if he should frankly say, I wish to give you a dose of the poinson hemlock, or of the thorn apple, both of which are well known to be potent poisons? It certainly would be. We take many things in ignorance that we would not have taken with full knowledge of their properties. And for the want of correct knowledge in relation to medicine, the sick man is compelled to risk his life many times, where he would not risk a shilling in like chances for loss, in the ordinary transactions of life.

Excerpt: ...whole, eighteen, of the most shocking convulsive fits that had ever been seen by any M 2 If one present. The spasms were so violent as to jar the whole house. After the fits had left her, she was entirely senseless, and was raving distracted for three days; and then hecame perfectly stupid, qpd lay in that situation for three days; she then laughed three days, and then cried three days; after which she seemed to awake like a person from sleep, and had no knowledge of what had passed, or that she had heen sick, or had a child. These two doctors continued to attend her, and used all the means in their power to strengthen the nervous system. She gained very slowly, and it was a long time hefore she got about; but she never got entirely over it. This sickness put me back in my business very much, and the expense was above two hundred dollars. In about a month after my wife had recovered from her sickness, she was attacked with the cholic, which required all my attention, and that of the two doctors who attended her before; but; all our exertions appeared to be in vain, for the disease had its regular course for several days, and then left her. These attacks continued once a month, or oftener, and it was so much trouble to go for the doctor so often, as I had to go during these turns, that I let a young man, who studied with Dr. Watts, have a house on my farm, so as to have him handy; but I soon found that by having a doctor so near, there was plenty of business for him; for there was not a month in the year but what I had somebody sick in my family. If a child was attacked with any trifling complaint, the doctor was sent for, and they were sure to have a long sickness; so he paid his rent and keeping very easy. This doctor lived on my farm...

Book excerpt: Antonette Mattesons "Occult Family Physician" is one of a large number of works from its era on the subject of herbal medicine; it is, however, more comprehensive than most, mixing a fairly exhaustive list of specific recipes with a truncated Materia Medica and a basic and reasonably modern dietary guide. It also includes a few short poems and a passage, oddly, on spiritism, mediumship, and clairvoyance.Overall it is quite good; the botanic method often ruminated on but a few species (lobelia notably) but Mattesons work goes a bit further than this and provides a list of about a hundred herbal species of note which are variously combined with other methods to preserve, restore, and promulgate health. It is perhaps one of the best medical works of its admittedly pre-modern era.
Download or read book The People s Doctors written by John S. Haller and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samuel Thomson, born in New Hampshire in 1769 to an illiterate farming family, had no formal education, but he learned the elements of botanical medicine from a "root doctor," who he met in his youth. Thomson sought to release patients from the harsh bleeding or purging regimens of regular physicians by offering inexpensive and gentle medicines from their own fields and gardens. He melded his followers into a militant corps of dedicated believers, using them to successfully lobby state legislatures to pass medical acts favorable to their cause. John S. Haller Jr. points out that Thomson began his studies by ministering to his own family. He started his professional career as an itinerant healer traveling a circuit among the small towns and villages of Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. Eventually, he transformed his medical practice into a successful business enterprise with agents selling several hundred thousand rights or franchises to his system. His popular New Guide to Health (1822) went through thirteen editions, including one in German, and countless thousands were reprinted without permission. Told here for the first time, Haller's history of Thomsonism recounts the division within this American medical sect in the last century. While many Thomsonians displayed a powerful, vested interest in anti-intellectualism, a growing number found respectability through the establishment of medical colleges and a certified profession of botanical doctors. The People's Doctors covers seventy years, from 1790, when Thomson began his practice on his own family, until 1860, when much of Thomson's medical domain had been captured by the more liberal Eclectics. Eighteen halftones illustrate this volume.
