Still others have no medical connection whatsoever. Today, murder pamphlets are a rich source for historians of medicine and crime novelists, but also cultural historians, who mine them for material to illuminate the history of class, gender, the law, science, the city, religion and other topics.<\/p>\n<h2><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/profiles.nlm.nih.gov\/\">Profiles in Science <\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"28313\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/2024\/01\/18\/nlm-collections-tour-forensic-medicine\/oswald-avery-sq\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?fit=200%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"200,200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Oswald-Avery-sq\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?fit=200%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?fit=200%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"size-full wp-image-28313 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?resize=200%2C200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A white man writing at a desk.\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?w=200&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/circulatingnow.nlm.nih.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Oswald-Avery-sq.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/profiles.nlm.nih.gov\/spotlight\/cc\">The Oswald T.
