An erudite history of medicine...a welcome addition to any
medical collection. -- Booklist 
How does medical science advance? Popular historians would have us
believe that a few heroic individuals, possessing superhuman
talents, lead an unselfish quest to better the human condition. But
as renowned Yale surgeon and medical historian Sherwin B. Nuland
shows in this brilliant collection of linked life portraits, the
theory bears little resemblance to the truth. 
　　Through the centuries, the men and women Who have shaped the
world of medicine have been not only very human people but also
very much the products of their own times and places. Presenting
compelling studies of great medical innovators and pioneers,
Doctors gives us the extraordinary story of the development of
modern medicine -- told through the lives of the
physician-scientists whose deeds and determination paved the way.
Ranging from the legendary Father of Medicine, Hippocrates, to
Andreas Vesalius, whose Renaissance masterwork on anatomy offered
invaluable new insight into the human body, to Helen Taussig,
founder of pediatric cardiology and co-inventor of the original
"blue baby" operation, here is a volume filled with the spirit of
ideas and the thrill of discovery. Says The New York Times,
"Doctors can be warmly recommended. Dr. Nuland succeeds in bringing
his subjects vividly to life, and he leaves you with a much better
understanding of what they achieved." 
　　"Eloquent, informed, deeply committed." -- Los Angeles Times
