Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Peter Cullimore, author of Saints, Crooks & Slavers tells the remarkable story of the dissenting doctors of Georgian Bristol.A pioneer in jabs against the deadly smallpox pandemic of the 1700s; a madhouse doctor who reformed brutal treatment of the mentally ill; a male midwife with a sideline in painting exquisite watercolours; an amateur GP who dispensed pills free of charge and treated disease with electric shocks. All were prominent doctors in Georgian Bristol - and all were Quakers.These religious dissenters were inspired by a shared moral code, desire to help the sick and needy and a lively interest in new scientific ideas. Forming their own distinctive community and social life, the Quakers faced prejudice among employers and the wider public alike.Pills, Shocks & Jabs reveals how close personal links with each other enabled talented individuals from a tiny religious minority to flourish in medicine. The book also draws parallels with the modern global battle against the coronavirus. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting.
