The Rise and Fall of Modern Medicine
James Le Fanu
The medical achievements of the post-war years rank as one of the supreme epochs of human endeavour. Advances in surgical technique, new ideas about the nature of disease & huge innovations in drug manufacture vanquished most common causes of early death, But, since the mid-1970s the rate of development has slowed, and the future of medicine is uncertain. How has this happened?
James Le Fanu's hugely acclaimed survey of the 'twelve definitive moments' of modern medicine & the intellectual vacuum which followed them has been fully revised & updated for this edition. The Rise & Fall of Modern Medicine is both riveting drama & a clarion call for change.
