Opis

An extensively illustrated dictionary of terms, people, events, and dates spanning the entire history of medicine, this is a major resource of hard-to-find information about notable medical figures, instruments, conditions, procedures, and dates. In this single volume readers can easily find detailed definitions of medical terms and descriptions of people and events contributing to the development of medicine. The entries range from abacterial pyuria to zygote, including Latin and Greek origins of terms, compact biographies with dates, eponymic information, rarely seen drawings and photographs of antique medical instruments, and little-known conditions.
