He wrote a number of medical texts. His most important book was his History of Physic (1725-6). He has been called the first English historian of medicine. The present book first appeared in Latin in 1703. It deals with women and "the nature of their menstruous purgation." Emmenologia, "displays a leaning toward mechanistic physiology, but most of his other medical works are concerned with therapeutics" (Marie Boas Hall, DSB).
