Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of medicine, particularly exploring the evolution of transportation methods used by physicians to reach their patients. Beginning with ancient Greece, where the author posits that physicians likely initiated the doctor-patient relationship rather than the other way around, the book follows medical practitioners through the ages. The author highlights the use of chariots in ancient Greece and Rome, while also discussing the limitations of using horses and carriages in the face of poor road conditions and a lack of proper infrastructure. The book goes on to describe the use of litters and sedan chairs, as well as the eventual adoption of automobiles in the early 20th century. The narrative emphasizes how these transportation methods shaped the daily lives and practices of physicians, and touches upon the broader social and cultural contexts in which they operated. Ultimately, this book provides a unique perspective on the history of medicine, offering insights into the challenges and advancements that have characterized the delivery of healthcare throughout the centuries.
