1932 VITALOGY: Homeopathic Medical Guide ANTIQUE Longevity Home Made Cures Book Vitalogy Homeopathic Medical Guide Antique Longevity Home Made Cures Book Encyclopedia of Health and Home- 1932 - Author E.H.Ruddock -MD This is a very large book "VITALOGY - AN ENCYCLOPEDIA OF HEALTH AND HOME", by E. H. Ruddock, M.D., copyright 1930 This wonderful old book contains 1010 pages and according to the facing page contains "Twenty Books Bound in One Large Volume". The book is illustrated with Manikins, (Natural Colors) and Colored and Half-Tone Plates. There are two Anatomy Foldouts - one is a Torso showing organ location and the other is Anatomy of the Head and includes brain division. There are lots and lots of black/white illustrations. I believe this book to be one of the first self-help Medical Guide books to be used at home in the US. There are lots and lots of home remedies; some are very amusing, but may have very well worked! believe the name of this book was later used by Pearl Jam in the 1990's for one of their album titles. Condition is GOOD ! There is slight rubbing of the covers at bottom and along one side of the spine. Inside pages are in great condition - no writing, dog-earing, etc. This is a wonderful book from long ago which is in reasonable condition; I don' think you will be disappointed! http://www.flickr.com/photos/48788707@N04/sets/72157623596383473/show/
