The work of two German professors, Theodor Meyer-Steinegg and Karl Sudhoff, will take us through several millennia of medical history, from magic to real science, from ancient times to the "golden" 19th century. Thanks to this book, we will learn about surgery in Ancient Babylon, visit medical institutions in Ancient Greece and the first medieval anatomical theaters in Europe, invent the first "medicines" from chemical compounds together with Paracelsus, observe the incredible experiments of Frederick Ruysch, witness the first vaccination against smallpox made by the English doctor Edward Jenner, and, of course, appreciate the grandiose discoveries of the Russian surgeon Nikolai Pirogov. By the way, this book itself also has a history: it was published at the beginning of the last century, but is still considered one of the most outstanding and reliable sources in this field. One of its advantages is the abundance of drawings illustrating various moments in the history of the development of medical art, but for the new edition we have prepared an improved illustrative series, where the classic black and white drawings are replaced by full-color reproductions of masterpieces of world painting.
