A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

War, Religion, and Science The character of battles changes The forging of the Link The three Ambulance problems Heroes of the crusade The three periods of Medicine. THE history of the treatment meted out to -- those Wounded in War is the history of the World. It tells the story of the growth of Man, from the day of the savage who strikes down his rival in love or the chase, to that of the modern conscript, torn from the desk to fall to the bullet of a far-off, invisible foe. Looking back across the battle-fields of the ages, we see the wounded groaning forth tortured lives, lifting imploring hands, the while those who love them agonize in vain to help them, because the link between is missing. The forging of the Link has been very slow ;even yet it is so slender that it will snap under unexpected strain, now after twenty-five centuries in which we can trace its gradual welding. But the Link is now there.
