Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the

imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

A notable surgeon and charismatic teacher himself, Professor Ellis
has brought together in Operations that Made History a fascinating
collection of renowned surgical procedures, each one illustrating a
different aspect of the history of surgery. The first section of
the book looks at examples of surgical procedures which have made a
major contribution to the history of surgery, such as the first
successful gastrectomy, performed in Vienna over a hundred years
ago by Theodor Billroth. Some operations, whilst in themselves
minor procedures, have nevertheless had a massive impact on the
history of surgery. These are grouped together in the second
section. In the final part of the book, Professor Ellis focuses on
the famous patient, such as Nelson and George IV. In surgery, as in
fields of human activity, history is forgotten at our peril.
Operations that Made History gives its readers a unique insight
into a remarkable speciality, using the lessons of history to
instruct as well as amuse.

research and service needs, and is fully revised and updated to
reflect changes in the structure of medical careers and degree
courses, and the use of computational and information technology in
research presentation. An invaluable guide suitable for all stages
of a medical research career, from the first stages of research,
through to professional supervisors, career counselors and
postgraduate tutors.
Based on the authors' own tutorials and dissection sessions during

First published in 1991, Human Sectional Anatomy set new standards
for the quality of cadaver sections and accompanying radiological
images. Now in its fourth edition, this unsurpassed quality remains
and is further enhanced by the addition of new material. The superb
full-colour cadaver sections are compared with CT and MRI images,
with accompanying, labelled, line diagrams. Many of the
radiological images have been replaced with new examples for this
latest edition, captured using the most up-to date imaging
technologies to ensure excellent visualization of the anatomy. The
photographic material is enhanced by useful notes with details of
important anatomical and radiological features. Beautifully
presented in a convenient and portable format, the fourth edition
of this popular pocket atlas continues to be an essential textbook
for medical and allied health students and those taking
postgraduate qualifications in radiology, surgery and medicine, and
an invaluable ready-reference for all practising anatomists,
radiologists, radiographers, surgeons and medics.
Written in a personal and engaging style, this book provides a
fascinating and informative introduction to the development of
surgery through the ages. It describes the key advances in surgery
through the ages, from primitive techniques such as trepanning,
some of the gruesome but occasionally successful methods employed
by the ancient civilisations, the increasingly sophisticated
techniques of the Greeks and Romans, the advances of the Dark Ages
and the Renaissance and on to the early pioneers of anaesthesia and
antisepsis such as Morton, Lister and Pasteur.

It is helpful for the clinician to serve the medical profession.
First published in 1912, French's Index of Differential Diagnosis
helps clinicians in the differential diagnosis of any condition
which may be seen in hospital or general practice. Arranged
alphabetically by symptom, the text helps readers identify each
presentation, describes the different diagnoses that it could
represent, and explains the tests used to make a diagnosis. Colour
clinical photographs help with diagnoses at a glance. The book is
completely revised - many sections are largely rewritten, new ones
added, diagnostic methods updated, many old illustrations replaced
and others inserted. The emphasis, however, remains the same: the
importance of a careful history, detailed clinical examination and
the judicious use of laboratory and imaging investigations in the
elucidation of the correct diagnosis. This reference is
indispensable to medical students as well as trainee and
established doctors in both general and hospital practice.
