Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Bold and compelling. Uniformly excellent, and often wryly amusing.'' - The Wall Street Journal 'A globetrotting historical adventure, told from the inside of the operating room. Medical writing at its most exhilarating.' - Michael Paul Mason'Comprehensively researched, deftly told, and radiating both intellect and passion.
