| Summary | "Remarks on the Uses of some of the Bazaar Medicines and Common Medical Plants of India" by Edward John Waring is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the medicinal properties and applications of various common medical plants and bazaar medicines available throughout India, aiming to provide practical guidance for both professionals and laypeople in medical situations. Waring's text addresses the importance of these local remedies in the absence of more advanced medical facilities, highlighting their historical and cultural significance. At the start of the work, the author outlines its purpose, which stems from a recognized need among Indian subjects for effective, accessible medical treatments. He notes the success of previous editions, illustrating the ongoing demand for such knowledge, particularly among missionaries, officials, and educated natives. Waring details various common medicinal plants and their uses, incorporating practical advice on preparation and dosages, while underlining the role of these remedies in treating everyday ailments.
