superb black and white pictorial history

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago

this quite magnificent volume touches upon various aspects of principally american medical history. i am rather interested in this topic for professional reasons and found the layout and previously unseen photos extremely useful. the topics such as: war medicine; a day in the life of a country doctor; heroes in medicine and so on give the book a very human touch. recommended reading if only for the great photos.
