Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, authored by a member of the Royal College of Surgeons, provides a survey of surgical practices from the late 18th century. It provides a glimpse into a period of great innovation and progress in the field. Subjects covered include the causes and treatment of inflammation, gunshot wounds, aneurisms, hemorrhoids, cancer, and much more. The text places an emphasis on the role of in-person examination, encouraging students to form their own judgments while learning from the author's extensive experience. Of special note is the author's insistence on the importance of a clean environment. His assertion that flies should be kept away from wounds is remarkable considering the general acceptance of the theory of spontaneous generation at the time. This book will fascinate historians of medicine, medical students, practitioners, and anyone interested in the development of surgical practices. Its in-depth exploration of surgical techniques, case studies, and theories is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of late 18th century surgical thought.
