Abdalla Sala Ellis Harold A Hist (2018) (PDF) by Harold Ellis

Description

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.

User’s Reviews

Review “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)

⭐ This is a terrific scientific overview of medical/surgical history for
both the lay public and medical professionals. Would make an excellent gift
for current medical students. Profusely illustrated, it’s best viewed on a
tablet or Kindle Fire (i.e. not the Kindle Paper-White).
