Pub Date: April 2nd, 1949
Publisher: Houghton, Mifflin

The history of medicine reduced to some 250 pages and recorded in terms of its greats and its discoveries, from prehistoric peoples with their witch doctors through the dark ages to the Renaissance which opened up new fields, on to the 20th century with its new findings in new drugs and its new developments in public health. A competent concise treatment, admirably adapted to the needs of young adults.
