Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces surgical innovation and evolution across a century of medical progress. At the book's outset, surgical practice was a far cry from the refined methods of today, with infection and death commonplace risks of even minor procedures. The author details the contributions of Lister and other medical luminaries, whose work on antiseptics and anaesthetics revolutionised the operating theatre, allowing complex operations and greatly increasing the chances of a patient's survival. Against the backdrop of almost unbelievable advances in surgical practice, the author gives due regard to broader historical and technological developments, which together have made possible the amazing surgical feats achieved in recent times. This meticulously researched work is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the history of medicine and the remarkable journey that has led to modern surgical practice.
