Doctors Killed George Washington: Hundreds of Fascinating Facts from the World of Medicine
If you ever get the hankering for silly medical trivia this is the book for you. Maybe you want some little known facts for a dinner party? Then this book will give it to you in spades. Perhaps you'd like to see how medicine has changed, or not changed as the case may be, across the millennia. Nothing that will be earth shattering, but definitely a fun read of sometimes silly, sometimes dangerous, but always entertaining facts from the history of medical treatment.
