[Raspail's camphor chest].
In the 19th century many medical textbooks were published in Poland. These presented the principles of medical knowledge, including information about illnesses and medicines. Most of them were written by physicians or pharmacists but some of them were written by charlatans. Books describing "miracle cures" were specially popular and often had many editions. The book Domowy lekarz i domowa apteka written by F. V. Raspail and published in Warsaw in 1864 is a good example of bad medical advice. The main medicine recommended by Raspail was camphor.
