520 $aMedicine has long been considered the most noble of human professions. Years before we understood the intricate and complex workings of our cells, tissues, and organs, there were men and women who sought to heal the sick and ease their suffering. This book presents the life and work of 50 individuals who have shaped the history of medicine. In addition to these major figures, feature sections on ethical, scientific, and personal topics including epidemics, cloning, and animal experimentation, give an overview of 10 major issues in contemporary medicine.
