Domestic or, a Treatise on the Prevention and Cure of Diseases by Regimen and Simple Medicines, is considered the go-to medical reference for 18th century practitioners and families, selling over 80,000 copies worldwide across 19 editions. This second edition of the prized medical handbook, developed by Scottish physician William Buchan, provides ancient advice and treatments for ailments ranging from Apoplexy to Yellow Fever and provides cautions for various temperaments and behavioral traits, like Studiousness. Originally printed in 1769, it was a massive success from Europe to the New World and was a keepsake in many homes. Dr. Buchan's goal was clear in his laborious efforts to catalog these remedies and medical suggestions; to deliver a comprehensive and accessible guide to diseases of the time for the everyday 18th century person. We have worked to restore this piece of classic medical literature with minimal editorial liberty to preserve the feel and style of the text. Additionally, we improved on the current scanned digital copies found on the internet by releasing this text version. As you read, you will find many plants, metals, and other common objects and chemicals that are still used to this day, some of which may shock you . Other terms may seem a bit foreign, either because they are foreign or because they are relics of a bygone era. There are resources in the Appendix, including a Glossary, which should aid in your endeavor. Should you lack confidence, we're sure Dr. Buchan wouldn't mind you stepping out of the 18th century elements and using the World Wide Web at your disposal to help you navigate the text.
