Product Description

Medical history offers us many wise thoughts, a few misguided notions, and a host of intriguing back-stories.On the Shoulders of Medicines Giantspresents a selection of these, and tells how the words of medicines giantssuch as Hippocrates, Sir William Osler, Francis Weld Peabody, and ElizabethKbler-Rossare relevant to medical science and practice in the 21stcentury. Which physician was the inspiration for the fictional character Sherlock Holmes, and what did he identify as "the real essential factor in all successful medical diagnosis"?What did Sigmund Freud describe as his tyrant, and what might this mean for doctors today? Do you know the attributed source of the well-known aphorism about horses and zebras, and what we believe this physician actually said? This book answers these questions and more, while also providing fascinating tales about each individual quoted. On the Shoulders of Medicines Giantsis recommended for practicing physicians, students, and residents, as well as nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and anyone involved in patient care who wants to understand the historical and epistemological foundations of what we do each day in practice.
