Nancy Duin Poradie kníh (chronologicky)

Vzrušujúce čítanie o postupnom odhaľovaní tajov ľudského tela od praveku až podnes.

Taken from the Foreword:The authors take you on a fascinating tour through ages and continents, with stories of superstition, bravery, the odds, persecution and inspiration: from East to West; from quacks to humble scientists and then to Nobel-prize winners; from witch doctors to royal surgeons.You will read in these pages of the horrors and the unexpected successes of the medicine of Ancient Greece and Rome and the Dark Ages; of how the bubonic plague decimated populations in the Middle Ages; and of the triumphs of anaesthesia, antisepsis, vaccination and antibiotics.
