customer review from amazon.com
With over 400 books in my collection of quotation books, some dating back 400+ years, I feel confident in saying that this book is a welcome addition in a field where so many are just spun off small presses without adding anything to the field….. The best quotation books help you discover new writers you want to delve into more deeply, by giving you enough information and inspiring or stimulating thoughts so you seek out the full text source. This book does this too. It's a great read, full of illuminating ideas.

Medicine in Quotations is much more than a random collection of famous sayings relating to sickness and health, disease and treatment. It is a portrait of medicine throughout recorded history. Readers will discover how medical concepts and practices have developed and shifted through the millennia, and how many illnesses recognised today were first identified a thousand or more years ago.
