The History of Medicine, Money, and Politics: Riding the Rollercoaster of State Medicine
نویسنده
چکیده
This work essentially represents two parts of a whole. Part one is a medical chronology and the reader is taken on an odyssey, as we chart the evolution of medicine from prehistoric times, through the ancient world, the middle ages, and into our modern world. Goddard writes with impressive authority, and reveals a deep love for learning, not just about medicine, but civilization. The author also invites us to consider the huge intellectual contributions of the Roman, Greek, Chinese and Islamic worlds.
