  • Title: On the thirty-first of March, 1794, was published in one volume, royal quarto, price two guineas in boards, a physiological, theoretic and practical treatise on the important utility and salutary effects of the science of muscular action : Accompained with plain and accurate descriptions of the muscles of the human body; in various and different points of view, distinctly shewing their respective motions as produced by means of a peculiar and well-adapted apparatus for restoring the power, action and strength of the limbs, whether disabled by gout, rheumatism, colds, paralytic causes, chronic affections, contractions, or sprains, or weakened by other accidents. The use of this apparatus will be found peculiarly beneficial for promoting the regular tone of muscles, and re-establishing the health of sedentary persons; and will prove useful for children of weak, rickety and protuberant joints. Confirmed by several well-authenticated cases. The whole illustrated by fifteen elegant copper-plates. By John Pugh, anatomist. The representations of the muscles are drawn and engraved by Mr. Kirk, under the immediate directions of the author. Printed for C. Dilly, in the Poultry; sold also by Johnson, St. Paul's Church-yard; Shepperson and Reynolds, No. 137, Oxford-road; Debrett, Piccadilly; and Bull and Hensley, Bath
