At times throughout history, medical pretenders known as ‘quacks’ attempted to sell items to ailing patients that appeared to be medical, but were actually useless, or even dangerous! Students will be required to think critically about whether objects in the loan kit are the result of medical innovation or mere quackery. Objects include a ceramic phrenology bust, cupping cups, a bleeding bowl (with a leech!), and a sample of a carbolic suture from the 1800s.Quackery & Discovery contains three different activity packs, a folder of archive materials and 12 different objects.Click  for a full list of box contents and resources.All Museum in a Box loan kits from The Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh are designed to be used with students from p5 to S2.After you book through Eventbrite you will be contacted via email to complete and sign our loan contract, to choose a pick-up date and time, and to choose a drop-off date and time.All loan kits must be pick-up up from the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, 11 Queen Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1JQ.https://youtu.be/SoNBvZXs_9E?si=6XwPRTOocX3h9v4F
