Nuland & William Carlos Williams. ~"Between wisdom and medicine there is no gulf fixed; in fact, medicine possesses all the qualities that make for wisdom." ~HIPPOCRATES. / The dramatic story of medicine through the ages is the subject of this magnificent volume of selections from great writings and art~essays, fiction, poetry, paintings, woodcuts, and much more. MEDlCINE: A TREASURY OF ART AND LITERATURE celebrates the art and science of sustaining life through knowledge. Brought together for the first time in a lavishly illustrated, large~format book are excerpts from great medical documents such as Hippocrates' Decorum, Celsus's On Medicine, Pare's Ten Books of Surgery, and Harvey's On the Motion of the Heart and Blood. Great scenes from history appear in these pages, as lepers are cast from society in the Middle Ages, a cholera epidemic ravages Paris, and the poet Walt Whitman tends wounded soldiers during the American Civil War. Many of the groundbreakers, whose names are renowned, are in these pages, telling their own stories: Edward Jenner, Ignaz Semmelweis, Wilhelm Roentgen, and Albert Schweitzer. The great struggles against the threats to health, waged with both failures and suecesses by doctors like Joseph Lister, chemists like Louis Pasteur, and nursing pioneers like Florence Nightingale, dramatically illuminate the human condition. Yet these are just a sampling of the medical adventures that unfold in this volume, in fascinating texts and images. The 235 illustrations, 145 of which are exquisitely reproduced in full color, draw upon enduring works of art concerning medicine, including Rembrandt's The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, Hogarth's Visit to a Charlatan, Eakins's The Agnew Clinic, and Van Gogh's The Hospital at Arles. Black~and~white illustrations provide numerous images from early medical tracts, showing ancient views of anatomy and pioneering methods of treatment. There are many hours of enjoyable reading and visual enrichment in this unique treasury. It is sure to delight people who practice medicine, who study to become medical professionals, or who simply want to bestow an unforgettable gift upon their favorite physician. ANN G. CARMICHAEL, M.D., PH.D., is a director of the Center for the History of Medicine at Indiana University, Bloomington. RICHARD M. RATZAN, M.D., is Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine, Farmington. JACKET ILLUSTRATION: PIETRO LONGHI. The Apothecary. 1752.

Aggiungi al carrellohardcover. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
