A History of Surgery: Third Edition

Autor Harold Ellis, Sala Abdalla
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 dec 2018
Written in a personal and engaging style, this book provides a fascinating and informative introduction to the development of surgery through the ages. It describes the key advances in surgery through the ages, from primitive techniques such as trepanning, some of the gruesome but occasionally successful methods employed by the ancient civilisations, the increasingly sophisticated techniques of the Greeks and Romans, the advances of the Dark Ages and the Renaissance and on to the early pioneers of anaesthesia and antisepsis such as Morton, Lister and Pasteur.

Recenzii

"This is a book that should be on the shelves of students, academics, and historians of medicine as a single-volume encyclopedia for easy, handy consultation. The division into chapters will make consultation straightforward and the index will help in searching for topics that might not be apparent from chapter titles and their subdivisions."
Alain Touwaide, PhD (The Huntington)
