Advice to the people in general with regard to their health : but more particulary calculated to those, who, by their distance from regular physicians, or other very experienced practitioners, are the most unlikely to be seasonably provided with the best advice and assistance, in acute diseases, or upon any sudden inward or outward accident. With a table of the most cheap, yet effectual remedies, and the plainest directions for preparing them readily / Translated from the French edition of Dr. Tissot's Avis au people, &c., printed at Lyons, with all his own notes, adapted to this English translation by J. Kirkpatrick.
