Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book argues the ideas on why most disease in humans often proves fatal in large part to the gross lack of knowledge about their causes, so that the finding of remedies is equally uncertain. Exacerbated by a lack of autopsy and examination of bodies, and the incorrect notion that the body contains distinct entities called 'humors', remedies are haphazard, based on guesswork more than thoughtful diagnosis. On the other hand, and presented in vivid contrast are the astonishing accomplishments of chemistry which have been equally paramount. This book establishes through meticulous examination of ancient texts, theories, and a wealth of well-documented evidence, that one of the earliest causes of human disease and death is a virulent poison which seeps out of the bodies of the dead. Most interesting is that the acid is found to be extremely similar to nitric acid which is now used in fertilizers and explosives, and which the author has proven to be only slightly less deadly than the acid found in corpses. This work thus establishes the vital bridge between the historical attempts to understand disease and the scientific understanding of the present day, as it were, offers a glimpse at the evolution of medical knowledge which continues to advance even today, all the while complimenting the enduring value and insights of past inquiry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780259304715_0
