Under the Knife: A History of Surgery in 28 Remarkable Operations
by Arnold van de Laar
You had me at "cut a stone out of his own bladder". Can you imagine?
I'm the type of person that, if something is mentioned in passing, that I medically have no knowledge of, I will go straight to Google to learn more. I'm also a notorious Web-MD'er, but let's not talk about that. 😸 I love medical knowledge. My mom was a nurse and I married a paramedic so talking about various and sundry medical issues is commonplace for me. I even took various Anatomy and Physiology and Medical Terminology classes in college as electives! While I find the medical field fascinating, I chose not to go into a career in it, simply because I don't think I have the patient interaction skills necessary ( i.e. I have RBF). That doesn't stop me from finding it fascinating and always wanting to learn.
Under the Knife is filled to the brim with medical knowledge. Each chapter presents a medical condition and gives historical examples. It then supplies you with a medical aside in which it very simply sets out and defines the condition with how it may be treated today.
