This is the history of evidence-based medicine from the 16th to 20th centuries, presented in the form of short illustrated stories. The book describes both familiar and completely unknown facts. Research doctors, innovative doctors, writers, patients, and politicians — all of them made amazing discoveries and feats to save the lives of their patients.

You will learn about the most significant operations that laid the foundation for the development of the main areas of medicine; how pathogens of deadly diseases were discovered and how they were defeated; how methods for treating chronic diseases and acute conditions were developed; how medical equipment and vital drugs were invented and improved. The author explains complex medical terms and the essence of important physiological processes in an accessible way.

There is no fiction in the book: the facts presented are supported by careful verification in specialized literature and periodicals, memoirs, interviews, lectures, and archival materials.
