Delve into the fascinating and unsettling world of medical fraud with ""Quacks and Grafters."" This historical account explores the pervasive issue of quackery, patent medicine, and charlatans preying on the vulnerable. Uncover the deceptive practices and false promises that defined an era where medical ethics were often compromised.

This meticulously prepared print edition sheds light on a dark corner of medical history, examining the social and health issues surrounding these deceptive practices. Explore the methods employed by ""quacks"" to exploit public trust and profit from dubious remedies. ""Quacks and Grafters"" offers a compelling glimpse into a time when distinguishing genuine healthcare from dangerous deception was a matter of life and death. A vital resource for anyone interested in medical history, ethics, and the enduring struggle against medical fraud.
