DOWNLOAD EBOOKPeeking at “The Brief History of Wound Care.” The history of wound healing is, in a sense, the history of humankind. One of the oldest medical manuscripts known to man is a Clay Tablet that dates back to 2200 B. C. · This tablet describes, perhaps for the first time, the “Three Healing Gestures”: 1. Washing the wounds, 2. Making the plasters, and 3. Bandaging the wound. In summary, The first wound treatments were described 5 millennia ago. Since then, various Principles Of Wound Care have been passed on from generation to generation. In contrast to large numbers of general technological inventions over the past 100 years, progress beyond Ancient Wound Care practices is a recent phenomenon. It is essential to know the historical aspects of Wound Treatment (both successes and failures) in order to continue this progress and provide future direction It is amazing to see that some of the basic principles of wound healing have been known since 2000 B.C. Thus, it is strived in this E-Booklet to compile brief History Of Wound Healing for the benefit of enthusiastic readers along with plenty of ILLUSTRATIONS to make it more interesting! …Dr. H. K.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis journey to the beginnings of the physician's art brings to life the civilizations of the ancient world--Egypt of the Pharaohs, Greece at the time of Hippocrates, Rome under the Caesars, the India of Ashoka, and China as Mencius knew it. Probing the documents and artifacts of the ancient world with a scientist's mind and a detective's eye, Guido Majno pieces together the difficulties people faced in the effort to survive their injuries, as well as the odd, chilling, or inspiring ways in which they rose to the challenge. In asking whether the early healers might have benefited their patients, or only hastened their trip to the grave, Dr. Majno uncovered surprising answers by testing ancient prescriptions in a modern laboratory. Illustrated with hundreds of photographs, many in full color, and climaxing ten years of work, The Healing Hand is a spectacular recreation of man's attempts to conquer pain and disease.
