Drysdale's book offers a passionate indictment of the widespread use of mercury as a treatment for syphilis and other diseases in the nineteenth century. Drawing on a rich array of historical and clinical evidence, the author argues that mercury is not only ineffective as a remedy, but actively harmful, causing a host of debilitating side effects and even exacerbating the very diseases it is intended to cure. The book is a landmark in the history of medicine and a powerful plea for a more rational, evidence-based approach to medical treatment.
