The book explores the evolution of health movements during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, highlighting the bizarre medical devices and dubious cures that arose alongside the advent of scientific medicine. It examines the simplistic beliefs and placebo effects that underpinned these treatments, many of which now seem ridiculous or even inhumane. However, it also acknowledges that some of these approaches were valid therapies, complicating the classification of all such practices as mere quackery.
