ISBN10: 0002151731, ISBN13: 9780002151733, [publisher: HarperCollins Publishers, United Kingdom, London] Softcover Medicine advances ever faster, and with it not just a capacity to overcome sickness, but to transform the very nature of life. Starting in ancient antiquity, this text charts how this health revolution came about and how life for human beings in the West has ceased, in Hobbes' memorable phrase, to be "nasty, brutish and short." Porter plots the growth of medical specialisms - pharmacology, physiology, anatomy, neurology, bacteriology - and the institutions of medicine - the hospital and asylum - to show how medical advances have often created as many problems as they have solved. The book also shows how the ancient Egyptians treated incipient baldness with a mixture of hippopotamus, lion, crocodile, goose, snake and ibex fat; how a mystery epidemic devastated ancient Athens and brought to an end the domination of that great city; and how lemons did as much as Nelson to defeat Napolean. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

ISBN10: 0002151731, ISBN13: 9780002151733, [publisher: Harper Collins Publishers, Hammersmith, London -] Softcover softcover, 15cms x 23cms (6" x 9¼") 832 pages Over fifty b&w illustrations. Roy Porter has produced another compulsively readable, astonishingly encyclopaedic book which is his best work to date: an epic, one-volume narrative history of man's struggle with the infirmities of his body, from Aesculapius to Aids. The author's perceptiveness is scalpel-sharp; his manner genially bedside; his erudition invigorating. To get the full benefit of Dr Porter's tonic, take a dose of the book at least once a say and retire early to bed. Book in VERY GOOD condition [McCrae, VIC, Australia] [Publication Year: 1997]
