This fascinating collection of historical curiosities brings together the strangest cases that baffled doctors from all over the world. From XNUMXth-century Holland to Tsarist Russia, from rural Canada to a whaling ship in the Pacific, people did stupid things everywhere, hurt themselves, and doctors had to deal with it all. (For example, one sailor swallowed dozens of penknives to entertain his comrades). Other stories testify to the ingenuity of surgeons long before the advent of anesthesia. So, in the XNUMXth century, a bold operation was carried out to remove a metal fragment from under the heart of a patient who was conscious. We also learn about the strange and sometimes funny medicines used by doctors of the past, from cow vomit to port wine enemas.
Combining a gripping story with poignant humor, this book will take you through some of the funniest, weirdest, and most wonderful corners of medical history that has given today's doctors the ability and knowledge to treat many diseases.
