The Conclave of Physicians, Part 1-2: Detecting Their Intrigues, Frauds, and Plots Against Their Patients is a book written by Gideon Harvey and published in 1686. The book exposes the unethical practices of physicians of that time, who were accused of conspiring against their patients for personal gain. Harvey, who was a physician himself, provides a detailed account of the various fraudulent practices that were prevalent in the medical profession, including the use of fake medicines, unnecessary surgeries, and misdiagnosis. The book also highlights the lack of regulation and accountability in the medical profession, which allowed these practices to flourish.
