This book, published to mark the sixty-second anniversary of Ether Day at Massachusetts General Hospital, examines the historical context, controversies, and legacy of the discovery of surgical anesthesia. The author argues that this discovery was not a sudden breakthrough, but rather the culmination of a series of experiments and observations made by various scientists and physicians over the course of several decades. The author also discusses the ethical and practical challenges that arose as surgical anesthesia became more widely used, and the impact it has had on the practice of medicine and the lives of countless patients. The book is a valuable contribution to the history of medicine and will be of interest to anyone interested in the history of science, medicine, or the human experience of pain.
