Morisoniana; or, Family adviser of the British College of Health: being a collection of the works of Mr Morison, the Hygeist
period treatise · 1829
LINK
SUMMARY
The collected works of James Morison, the primary statement of the Hygeian doctrine in his own publishing. Cited here as the primary-source basis for the system's claims: that all disease is the impurity of the blood, that the Vegetable Universal Medicine cures by purging that impurity, that the pills may be taken in large doses, and that keeping the blood pure preserves health. Bibliographic details (title, publisher Sherwood & Gilbert, 1829 second edition, viii+464 pages with a portrait) and the Public Domain Mark rights status taken from the Wellcome Collection catalogue record (work wa63a4qz).
NOTES
Morisoniana is Morison’s own collected Hygeian writings, issued through the British College of Health, and the primary-source anchor for the doctrinal claims in this bundle. It states the Hygeian system in Morison’s voice: the single-cause theory of disease (impurity of the blood), the universal-cure claim for the pills, the instruction to dose freely, and the preservation-of-health promise. The edition cited is the 1829 second edition (London: Sherwood & Gilbert), catalogued by the Wellcome Collection (work wa63a4qz) under a Public Domain Mark.
