Popularisation by the written word was of particular significance at the time. Readers would be given access to popular-science publications promoting knowledge from various fields of medicine. They were authored by both practitioners well known in the medical circles and by individuals without rich scientific achievements. Some of those publications were written with clear language, in a way accessible to the uneducated readership, and provided fundamental information on the causes of diseases, prevention and treatment. It needs to be underscored that many popular-science medical books were published by thousands by the Państwowy Zakład Wydawnictw Lekarskich Publishing House. These books are now valuable sources of information on the activities taken for health education of the Polish society in the Gomułka Period.
