This was a weird, fun time. It covers so many topics from: cannibalism, to pelvic stimulation, light therapy, lobotomy, and so much more. The information is given in a way that's easy to digest and fun to read.
I'd recommend this if you're interested in medical history, if you're into Caitlin Doughty's Ask A Mortician videos, or if you're into weird shit in general.

Slow start, but the rest of the book was pretty good.

Adding lobotomies to my top ten worst things ever list. Hate that.

an otherwise okay and passable survey of quacks, flimflams, and tonic peddling blood letters incredibly ruined by terrible and forced attempts at jokes, ad libs, and quips. just horrible jokes.
