Synopsis

Since the discovery of anaesthesia a little over 150 years ago, advances in surgery have had the drama and excitement of a novel. Here is the full, fascinating story of these advances discussed in an eminently readable book. In lively fashion the author describes such outstanding developments as the discovery of anaesthesia and the gradual evolution of the aseptic ritual.
