Download or read book Pioneers in Surgical Gastroenterology written by Walford Gillison and published by Tfm Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of surgery with a difference: a fine focus on surgical gastroenterology. The authors tell the story of how progress was made, with an emphasis on the character and work of each surgical pioneer in chronological order. The last chapter gives a biographical summary of each pioneer, including the briefest mention of their non-gastroenterological achievements. Finally, unlike any currently available book on the history of surgery, coverage of surgical evolution is taken as far as the dawn of minimal invasive ("hey-hole") surgery.
