This remarkable book demonstrates the early enthusiasm for newly discovered electrical and radiation applications. Following a lengthy technical section about the physics of electricity and radiation, this massive tome describes ways these modalities were used to treat everything from syphilis to acne. The warning in the preface to adopt “simple precautions” in the use of radioactive substances following the deaths of many colleagues is particularly poignant. Radiologists will be especially intrigued by the descriptions of newly-discovered x-rays to view inside the bodies of humans, animals, and plants.
