The Autobiography Of A Quack And The Case Of George Dedlow is a novel written by S. Weir Mitchell and published in 1900. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part being the autobiography of a doctor named John E. Searles, who becomes known as a quack for his unorthodox methods of treating patients. The second part of the book tells the story of George Dedlow, a wealthy man who becomes paralyzed after a fall from a horse. Searles is called in to treat Dedlow, and his controversial methods are put to the test. The book explores themes of medical ethics, the power of suggestion, and the limitations of traditional medicine. It is considered a classic in the field of medical literature and provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of medicine at the turn of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
