how to humanise a specialist art, June 21, 2015
By Dr James Gardiner
|
|
Loved it. As a practicing anaesthetist I identified with a lot of the human factors pinpointed in the book and I thought it was a great read for non medical people to show them how anaesthesia had contributed in a non triumphal way to the wonderful progress of modern medicine.

This was another book suggested to me by my physician friend for a young person who wants to be an anesthesiologist! She loves the book! Another good read for a budding physician!

A wonderful and fascinating book, January 16, 2010
By Marifrances (United States)
|
|
This is an excellent book, and well deserving of five stars. Researched in great detail and written in a colorful, expressive manner, this book brings the history of anaesthesia to life in a way that will keep you turning the pages.
I believe this book was written by a descendent of John Snow, which makes it even more special and immediate. I was amazed to learn about the intriguing and sometimes bizarre history of something we all take for granted -- anaesthesia.
I hope the author writes more medical history books, as this was a real winner. Well worth the $$!
