The Ambulance Surgeon, or Practical Observations on Gunshot Wounds
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of surgical techniques in response to the distinct characteristics of gunshot wounds, beginning with the era of musket warfare and concluding with the Crimean War. The author argues that, by the middle of the 19th century, the widespread use of firearms in close-range combat presented unprecedented challenges to military surgeons. As a result, they abandoned age-old notions of gunshot wounds as inherently poisonous or simply severe burns and adopted evidence-based principles of surgical care. This book offers a comprehensive and well-sourced account of the surgical practices employed to treat gunshot wounds during this transformative period, shedding light on the progress of medicine in the face of the horrors of war. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330332870_0
