Add to basketHardback. Condition: New. A history of masks protecting against bad air-in cities, factories, hospitals, and war trenches-exploring how our identities and beliefs shape the decision to wear a mask"[An] engrossing, finely illustrated account of a subject hitherto surprisingly under-researched."-Nature, Best Books of 2025 For centuries, humans have sought to protect themselves from harmful air, whether from smoke, dust, vapors, or germs. This book offers the first history of respiratory masks-ranging from simple pieces of cloth to elaborate gas masks-and explores why they have sparked both hope and fear. Bruno J. Strasser and Thomas Schlich captivate readers with stories of individuals-from renowned doctors and political leaders to forgotten inventors and anonymous factory workers-who passionately debated the value of masks. In Renaissance Italy and Meiji Japan, in Victorian Britain and Cold War America, the way societies have engaged with face coverings reveals their deepest cultural and political fractures. The Mask challenges us to reconsider how we care for one another and the kind of environment we aspire to inhabit.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. A history of the little-known or forgotten academic origins of modern organ transplant surgery.This book investigates a crucial -- but forgotten -- episode in the history of medicine. In it, Thomas Schlich systematically documents and analyzes the earliest clinical and experimental organ transplant surgeries. In so doing helays open the historical origins of modern transplantation, offering a new and original analysis of its conceptual basis within a broader historical context. This first comprehensive account of the birth of modern transplantmedicine examines how doctors and scientists between 1880 and 1930 developed the technology and rationale for performing surgical organ replacement within the epistemological and social context of experimental university medicine. The clinical application of organ replacement, however, met with formidable obstacles even as the procedure became more widely recognized. Schlich highlights various attempts to overcome these obstacles, including immunologicalexplanations and new technologies of immune suppression, and documents the changes in surgical technique and research standards that led to the temporary abandonment of organ transplantation by the 1930s. Thomas Schlichis Professor and Canada Research Chair in the History of Medicine at McGill University.
