period treatise · 1736
LINK
SUMMARY
Contemporaneous case-series pamphlet examined via the Wellcome Collection catalogue record (Public Domain Mark; ESTC T51794), which surveys sixty-eight patients' good and bad reactions to Ward's medicine, published in 1736 during Ward's own lifetime. Cited in this case only for its bibliographic fact (an independent, dated, contemporaneous examination of the medicine's real-world effects existed and was in circulation alongside Ward's own advertising); the case does not quote or assert specific findings from the pamphlet's body text, which was not transcribed for this bundle.
