Take a behind-the-scenes tour of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh and discover the fascinating history of poisons.
From experimental ancients to murderous Victorians, we uncover the history of poison panics, exotic antidotes and accidental arsenic ingestion.
What if there was poison in your shoes? Your hair? Your water? Your lunch? The College’s fascinating early medical texts and illustrations will show how the past was fraught with peril at every step.
