hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. Hardcover. Bound in light brown cloth with red foil lettering on the spine. What role did drug abuse play in John F. Kennedy's White House, and how was it kept from the public? How did general anesthetics and aging affect the presidency of Ronald Reagan? Why did Winston Churchill become more egocentric, Woodrow Wilson more self- righteous, and Josef Stalin more paranoid as they aged?and how did those qualities alter the course of history?Was Napoleon poisoned with arsenic or did underlying disease account for his decline at the peak of his power? Does syphilis really explain Henry VIII's midlife transformation? Was there more than messianism brewing in the brains of some zealots of the past, among them Adolf Hitler, Joan of Arc, and John Brown? Most important of all, when does one man's illness cause millions to suffer, and when is it merely a footnote to history?To answer such questions requires the clinical intuition of a practicing physician and the scholarly perspective of a trained historian. Bert Park, who qualifies on both counts, offers here fascinating second opinions, basing his retrospective diagnoses on a wide range of sources from medicine and history. xiv 274pp. Beige dustjacket with monochrome pictures of famous leaders and red foil text.CONDITION: Light shelf wear. Missing front fly leaf. Pages are crisp and clean. Binding and text block are sound. Dustjacket has moderate rubbing, parts of the red foil lettering are rubbed through and the spine is sunned. Full refund if not satisfied. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 073354
