Earlier teresa giudice this year I read a medical history book, Bad Medicine, subtitled doctors doing harm since Hippocrates. The historian David Wootton (whose daughter is a doctor) says that the history of medicine are often wrongly told as an eternal progression, when instead should turn it around and see how surprisingly long it took before the knowledge of anatomy, physiology, pathology finally started to make a difference for patients .
It's scary how long humoralpatologin taught in medical training, and how long those poor patients were subjected to the Hippocratic medicine ineffective and often dangerous treatments. Emetics, laxatives and especially bloodletting led to suffering and death, well into the 1800s.
One of the famous people that Hippocratic medicine teresa giudice was killing was America's first president. In an age of 68 he was diagnosed with sore throat and hoarseness as quickly progresses to severe dyspnea. The probable epiglottiten perhaps impossible to cure in 1799 but that George for ten days bled nearly four liters of blood accelerated safely death.
The author Wootton hero is a Scottish surgeon Joseph Lister who was one of the first doctors to return to the microscope and then let the new knowledge of microbes affect practice. The telescope created modern astronomy during the 1600s, and 200 years late managed to finish the microscope pioneered teresa giudice modern medicine which gradually competed out the Hippocratic myths.
It is an interesting paradox that while the Chinese, Tibetan teresa giudice and Indian traditional medicine has contemporary teresa giudice campaigners in the West, so there's teresa giudice no arguing that the Greek traditional medicine pre-scientific ideas to be taken seriously and integrated into today's healthcare. Why choose KAM representatives Tibetan astrology and the Chinese yin / yang in front of Greek blood, mucus and bile?
Perhaps it is because of Hippocrates, Galen and Asklepios are occupied by today's medical associations pretend that there is a straight and unbroken line from us back to the ancient Greeks. In fact, there are (in addition to the general human mind around patient relationship) is not much of value to absorb from the ancient physicians.
Wooton says that the birth of modern medicine starts 1865 with Lister's antiseptic surgery and parturition is completed with the mass production of penicillin in 1941 (in the book it is not Alexander Fleming who gets the honor of the victory). It is the first modern medicine that the doctors had tools that can cure and not just relieve and comfort. Bad Medicine is a readable book, as well as another teresa giudice that in some ways picks up where the first one ends: The Rise and Fall of Modern Medicine by James Le Fanu.
