"Heads of the People" was published in 1840 as a two-volume set,
edited by Douglas Jerrold, who also contributed several chapters.
This volume contains extracts from that work. A number of the
contributors, including Jerrold, were liberal or radical
journalists who went on to write for Punch, which was established
in the following year. The aim was to entertain the reader, but the
authors also claimed a "moral seriousness of purpose" in portraying
the many faces of the English, with their faults as well as their
virtues. Volume III engages the reader with characterizations of
the apothecary, the fashionable physician, the medical student, the
monthly nurse, and the quack doctor.
