While related to and expanding on Rush's 1784 An inquiry into the effects of spirituous liquors upon the human body, the work is substantively different. According to Early American medical imprints the text first appeared with ardent spirits in the title in the second edition of Rush's Medical Inquiries and observations (Shaw-Shoemaker 9290), published in 1805. Dated ca. 1810 in Shaw, but printer Archibald Bartram, died in 1808.
