Book Description
"...the surgeon is destitute of human sympathy; so far as its more familiar manifestations are concerned, it ought to be so; for tremulous hands and tear-blinded eyes are but illy calculated for surgical duties; but I think it will be found that surgeons enjoy no immunity from the ordinary emotions of the body and heart." In this state-of-the-art, sometimes humorous, always compassionate book about his medical practice, Dr. Edward Dixon reveals to the lay audience what it was like being a practitioner of the healing arts in mid-nineteenth century America. Covering topics as diverse as tuberculosis, whooping cough, scarlet fever, and the detriments of celibacy, he writes in simple prose about case studies from his own career. For the first time, this long-out-of-print book is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones. Be sure to LOOK INSIDE or download a sample.
