Description
|
|
|
|
The six personal, introspective essays here guide readers through a wealth of natural medical phenomena—both the everyday and the monstrously irregular—and conduct us from an instinctive, perhaps squeamish reaction to the subject of morbidity to one of profound wonderment. A professor emeritus of pathology at Northwestern University and the former head of pathology at Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago, F. González-Crussi is renowned for his medical essays, blending science, the history of medicine, and philosophy to conduct entertaining and unexpected literary journeys.
