About William Cullen

Dr William Cullen, who raised himself from the humblest position in Scottish life to the rank of the most distinguished physician of his epoch, applied his methodical mind to the elucidation of the higher science pertaining to the physical elements, and stepped far beyond the usual limits assigned to a professor of chemistry and medicine.

His son, Henry, was also a physician.
