Deliciously deadly!

Has your partner been asking about insurance? Does your tea taste funny? Do you have a rich relative tenaciously clinging to life? This is the talk for you! This talk explores a potted history of classic poisons, poisoners and their victims. Expect fatal formulas, lethal umbrellas and deadly wallpaper (plus a few handy hints for your defence barrister).*

Paracelsus wrote “All things are poisons, for there is nothing without poisonous qualities. It is only the dose which makes a thing poison.” Many compounds we now consider to be poisons were once found on pharmacy shelves. Before the twentieth century people often got better in spite of their doctor rather than because of them. This talk examines three former medicines, their effects on the body with some killer case studies.
