Omschrijving

A History Of The Gift Of Painless Surgery, written by Edward Waldo Emerson, is a book that explores the history and development of painless surgery. Published in 1896, the book takes readers on a journey through the evolution of surgical techniques, from the use of crude instruments and techniques to the development of modern anesthesia.Emerson begins by discussing the early days of surgery, when patients were often subjected to painful and invasive procedures without any form of pain relief. He then goes on to describe the first attempts at painless surgery, including the use of opium and other narcotics.The book also covers the discovery of ether and the subsequent development of anesthesia, which revolutionized the field of surgery and made it possible to perform complex procedures without causing undue pain or suffering.Throughout the book, Emerson provides detailed accounts of the key figures who played a role in the development of painless surgery, including William Morton, who first demonstrated the use of ether as an anesthetic, and John Snow, who pioneered the use of chloroform.Overall, A History Of The Gift Of Painless Surgery offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of medicine and the evolution of surgical techniques. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science and medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
