Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This volume illustrates some of renowned surgeon John Hunter's theories on syphilis. Hunter, one of the most celebrated anatomists and surgeons of the 18th century, believed the blood was alive and that it contained the life force of the body, including instances of disease. The author, a leading physician and Hunterian Professor at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, aims to elucidate these ideas through the study of syphilitic blood, investigating phenomena of syphilitic infection and its transmission, including examples of blood inoculation, the disease's constitutional manifestations, and its effects on the secretions of primary and secondary syphilitic lesions. While some of Hunter's theories require modification in light of modern medicine, the author argues that many remain as valuable reference points for understanding the pathology and treatment of syphilis even today. 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 9781330914922_0
