Immerse yourself in blood, boils, and bandages as you uncover how to treat tumours, battle bacterial infections and rustle up home remedies. Plus, along the way, meet swashbuckling surgeons, mad physicians, cunning lady herbalists, and most importantly some very brave patients!Dipping into historys major medical events (move over COVID 19, the Black Plague is here), this book covers ancient operations, medieval maladies, and wartime cures.
