HTML:<p><b>Surgeon Arnold van de Laar uses his own experience and expertise to tell this engrossing</b> <b>history of surgery through 28 famous operations—from Louis XIV and Einstein to JFK and</b> <b>Houdini.</b><br /> From the story of the desperate man from seventeenth-century Amsterdam who grimly cut a stone out of his own bladder to Bob Marley's deadly toe, <i>Under the Knife</i> offers a wealth of fascinating and unforgettable insights into medicine and history via the operating room.<br /> What happens during an operation? How does the human body respond to being attacked by a knife, a bacterium, a cancer cell or a bullet? And, as medical advances continuously push the boundaries of what medicine can cure, what are the limits of surgery?<br /> With stories spanning the dark centuries of bloodletting and amputations without anaesthetic through today's sterile, high-tech operating rooms, <i>Under the Knife</i> is both a rich cultural history, and a modern anatomy class for us all.</p>.
