The author, Benjamin Rush, was probably the most prominent physician in
America in the last quarter of the 18th Century and first quarter of the
19th Century. He was a professor of medicine at the University of
Pennsylvania at a time when American colleges and universities did not
have schools of medicine. He was one of the signers of the Declaration
of Independence.
