• Anesthetics

• Author William Lace
• Published by Lucent Books

For thousands of years, surgery and pain were inseparable companions and operating rooms were as much places of horror as of healing. Only in the last century and a half has the discovery of anesthesia brought relief to patients and enabled surgeons to perform life-saving procedures that would otherwise be impossible.

Review:

"Titles in this series chronicle medical discoveries that have affected us. The series does a good job of presenting the discoveries and discussing how they have changed society...These books, based on their format and bibliographies which offer further resources, are a good starting point for student research. Consider them if these topics are researched in your school."
