Publisher's Synopsis
The Failure of Surgery in Cancer, and What Has Medicine Done During the Queen's Reign? is a book written by Samuel Arthur S. Kennedy in 1900. The book explores the failure of surgical treatments for cancer, and the progress made in the field of medicine during the reign of Queen Victoria. Kennedy argues that surgery alone is not an effective treatment for cancer, and that a more holistic approach to treatment is necessary. He also examines the various medical advancements made during the Victorian era, including the development of antiseptics and anesthesia, and the establishment of medical schools and hospitals. The book provides a historical perspective on the evolution of medical practices, and sheds light on the challenges faced by doctors and patients in the past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
