Description

Culpepper's limited appeal on this side of the Atlantic may have been due to scepticism toward the more occult aspects of his system, i.e., his adherence to the doctrine of signatures and his belief in the influence of the heavens on the human body, on the diseases to which it is subject, and on the plants that heal it.
