William Henderson 1810-1872 was a distinguished British doctor and fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh. He created a scandal by adopting the practice of homoeopathy. Hendersons book "An Inquiry into the homoeopathic practice of medicine" London 1845 contains a description and defense of homeopathy followed by numerous case studies and treatments. In response Doctor John Forbes published a critique of Hendersons book in the January 1846 edition of the "British and foreign medical review" entitled "Homoeopathy allopathy and young physic." The critique was viewed as overly favorable toward homeopathy and Forbes therefore resigned editorship of that periodical. Hendersons subsequent "Letter to John Forbes" appeared both in the "British journal of homoeopathy" 1846 and separately See DNB. All three tracts are included in the New York 1846 edition of Hendersons "Inquiry" each with a separate title page and pagination. <br/> <br/> William Radde and J.T.S. Smith / Otis Clapp / C.L.
