Excerpt from The Cottage Physician for Individual and Family Use: Prevention, Symptoms and Treatment The study of medicine, not as an accomplishment, but as a subject Of the first importance to the individual, should be taken up by every one. The care Of our bodies is our first duty to ourselves. Self-preservation is the first law of Nature. In Obedience to that law all should learn from undoubted authorities how to preserve a healthful condition Of body, to ward Off disease, to care for and to feed the sick, as well as to render aid to the injured in emergencies. The need of this study is all the more emphasized by the statement upon the highest medical author ity that nearly all of our ailments are produced and propagated by either our own ignorance or our own carelessness. At no period Of the world's history have the people been so well quali fied to take up the study Of health as they are now. Physiology and other science subjects, taken up of late years in the schools of the country, have given a solid foundation upon which a sound knowledge of the human body and its needs may rest. This fact and the wonderful advances in medical science require that the subject be approached in a very different way from that which satisfied our immediate ancestors. Ten years have made a wonderful change in our knowledge of health and disease. Treatises that were excellent in their day now fail to meet the new conditions in so many respects that new and revised editions no longer satisfy.

Excerpt from The Cottage Physician for Individual and Family Use: Prevention, Symptoms and Treatment Every intelligent human being should study medicine. There is need of wisdom, accuracy, and judgment in the care of our bodies. The knowledge of medicine should be as universal as the need of it. No one can be considered well educated who does not understand the make-up of his own body and the care and requirements necessary to keep it in a state of health. The average man knows too little about himself, and no one knows too much, but the facts which have been demonstrated, and which are beneficial to mankind, should be a part of the common knowledge. This is true philanthropy. To cure a person of disease is a good thing, but to teach him how to keep well is a better one. The ignorance or indifference in respect to these things which prevails among enlightened and thinking people is almost incredible. All classes of men, lawyers, farmers, and business men, clergymen, teachers, and men prominent in national affairs, show the greatest eagerness and enthusiasm in mastering any detail of their respective callings which may be to their advantage. Yet, too often these same men manifest no anxiety whatever as to their own physical well-being. Men submit themselves, complacently, to fatigue, exposure, and excesses, which ruin the body, and frequently mind and soul as well. A part of this is due to carelessness, but the greater part can safely be laid at the door of ignorance. Men do not know the right rules of living. They do not know the certain and sure penalties which follow the breaking of these rules. There is, at the present day, more need of teachers for the people than for the educating of physicians. The world does not need more physicians. On the contrary the demand of the times is for fewer physicians, and better ones, and it always will be so. But the highest and best achievement of the medical profession is to prevent disease, and this can be accomplished in no better way than by teaching the people how to live. So, too, a book which shall teach the principles of right living in a clear, scientific, and God-fearing way is a boon to humanity. Such a book The Cottage Physician aims to be. But the world is awakening to a realizing sense of its own lack. It is looking for sources of relief. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This is a catalogue of the Edward C. Atwater Collection of rare books dealing with "popular medicine" in early America which is housed at the University of Rochester Medical School library. The books described in the catalogue were written by physicians and other professionals to provide information for the non-medical audience. The books taught human anatomy, hygiene, temperance and diet, how to maintain health, and how to cope with illness especially when no professional help was available. The books promoted a healthy lifestyle for the readers, giving guidance on everything from physical fitness and recreation to the special health needs of women. The collection consists of works dealing with reproduction [from birth control to delivering and caring for a baby], venereal disease, home-nursing, epidemics, and the need for public sex education. These books, covering areas largely ignored by the medical profession, made important contributions to the health of the American public, and the collection is a vital piece of medical history. The collector is Edward C. Atwater, Professor Emeritus of Medicine and the History of Medicine at the University of Rochester Medical School. Christopher Hoolihan is History of Medicine Librarian at the University of Rochester Medical School's Edward G. Miner LIbrary.

Drawing from a wide range of private and public sources, examines how American families gradually found access to taboo information and products for controlling the size of their families from the 1830s to the 1890s when a puritan backlash made most of it illegal. Emphasizes the importance of two shadowy networks, medical practitioners known as Thomsonians and water-curists, and iconoclastic freethinkers.

In Sex Ed, Segregated, Courtney Shah examines the Progressive Era sex education movement, which presented the possibility of helping people understand their own health and sexuality, but which most often divided audiences along rigid lines of race, class, and gender. Reformers' assumptions about their audience's place in the political hierarchy played a crucial role in the development of a mainstream sex education movement by the 1920s. Reformers and instructors taught middle-class youth, African-Americans, and World War I soldiers different stories, for different reasons. Shah's examination of "character-building" organizations like the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) and the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) reveals how the white, middle-class ideal reflected cultural assumptions about sexuality and formed an aspirational model for upward mobility to those not in the privileged group, such as immigrant or working class youth. In addition, as Shah argues, the battle over policing young women's sexual behavior during World War I pitted middle-class women against their working-class counterparts. Sex Ed, Segregated demonstrates that the intersection between race, gender, and class formed the backbone of Progressive-Era debates over sex education, the policing of sexuality, and the prevention of venereal disease. Courtney Shah is an instructor at Lower Columbia College, Washington.
