Description

每個人都知道醫學治病的光明面,卻很少人認識它致病的黑暗面!

你相信嗎?人們曾把木乃伊磨成粉、植入羊睪丸來壯陽、取死人的脂肪當藥膏、拿陣亡士兵的牙齒做假牙,以為這些都是最有效的醫療方法。

對比之下,現代人喝著汽水治感冒、生完小孩不洗頭、割掉器官防癌症、按摩腳底醫百病,你又如何看待?

不是只有「醫美」才讓醫學治療跟時尚扯上關係,早在幾百年前,醫療就是一種時尚產業。血淋淋的人體解剖彷彿舞臺劇般,是人人爭相購票圍觀的熱門表演,因此還衍生無數的盜墓行為、屍體競標,甚至導致一整座城市發生暴動!比電影還戲劇化的真實歷史,你相信嗎?

醫療的演進,是全人類的生存史,文明與野蠻交替,黑暗與光明並生,認知野蠻才能邁向文明,唯有剖開黑暗,光明方可到來。作者旁徵博引,爬羅剔抉,以輕鬆而深刻的筆調,點出千百年醫療史的荒謬與離奇、殘酷與巧合,最終將讓你我領悟生命之可貴。

臺灣最擅長講醫學歷史的心臟科醫師,連續三年撼動你我對醫學世界的認識!
