An Essay On The King�������s-Evil is a book written by Robert Willan and published in 1746. The book is a medical treatise on the disease known as scrofula, which was commonly referred to as the King’s Evil in the 18th century. The condition was believed to be a form of tuberculosis that affected the lymph nodes in the neck and was thought to be curable by the touch of the king. Willan’s book provides a detailed account of the history, symptoms, and treatment of scrofula, as well as an analysis of the various theories and beliefs surrounding the disease. The author draws on his own observations and experiences as a physician to offer practical advice on the management of scrofula, including the use of surgical interventions and herbal remedies. The book also includes a number of case studies and anecdotes that illustrate the impact of scrofula on individuals and communities. Overall, An Essay On The King�������s-Evil is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the medical knowledge and practices of the 18th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
