"It was August 27, 1885. In a hospital in Lima, Peru, a student
named Daniel Carrion was preparing to infect himself with a dreaded
disease . . . He had a small, sharp lancet ready . . . Carrion's
friends and teacher from the medical school thought it was a bad
idea. They knew Carrion was eager to learn more about this
mysterious disease.
But were the risks worth it?
"Science and medicine from the inside out-ten engrossing stories of
self-experimentation
Who are these "guinea pig scientists"? Searching for clues to some
of science's and medicine's bigger (and sometimes stranger)
questions, they are all the men and women who devoted their lives
to help find the answers. Spanning from the 1770s to the
present--and uncovering the science behind digestion, the spread of
yellow fever, the development of the first heart catheter, and
more--their ten stories are at once scientifically detailed and
fascinatingly personal.
