Kill or Cure not only tells the story of medicine, it also illustrates the science, the equipment, and the great medical practitioners. Witness early, bloody, anesthetic-free operations; see the first crude surgical instruments; trace the mapping of the circulatory system; and follow the painstaking detective work that led to the decoding of the human genome."-- _cDust jacket flap.
