The Treatment of Hay Fever by rosin-weed, ichthyol and faradic electricity
George Frederick Laidlaw
Rosin-weed for the sneezing, ichthyol painted on a precise spot in the naso-pharynx, and a faradic current to finish: Laidlaw's hay fever regimen is a period piece of inventive desperation. He walks through diagnosis, menthol and eucalyptol, and the electrical treatment in confident clinical detail. Allergy sufferers will read it with sympathy and quiet gratitude for antihistamines. Medical history at its most specific.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
