The application of electricity as a therapeutic agent
A short medical treatise by J. H. Rae on electrotherapy, published in New York by the homeopathic house Boericke & Tafel in 1877 for practicing physicians. The wood-engraved figures show patients seated with battery apparatus in use — a bearded man holding an electrode over an electro foot-bath — giving designers period equipment, wiring, and clinical postures.
