Excerpt from Lord Lister: His Life and Work It is impossible to separate a genius from all time. His work, however much it may be concerned with the special features of the period in which he lived, is always founded upon the first principles of life. Therein lies its distinction. The work of most men is concerned only with the setting and spirit of the times in which they themselves live. But the work of a genius is based upon the unchangeable foundations of human life and earns, in consequence, its immortality. The life and work of the late Lord Lister was of this kind. It affected man's relation to sickness and disease more fundamentally than the work of any other philosophic physician devoted to these problems. For Lister was emphatically far more than a great surgeon: he was far more the founder of modern surgery. He was a great philosopher whose thought never deviated from the central problem of life the mystery and quality of vitality. As a philosopher Lister is far too little known.

Excerpt from Lord Lister: His Life and Work The Egyptians were probably the most healthy people of history. Herodotus Spoke of them as the healthiest nation, and Diodorus said that from the king to his humblest subject the mode of life in Egypt seemed as if ordered by the physician rather than the lawyer. The Egyptians staved off disease by a reverent attention to the vitality of the body. They were the first people to master the question of antisepsis. By cassia, frankincense, and myrrh they preserved the body from the microbes of dissolution. But whether it was that their Vitality shielded them during life from notable microbic attack or some other reason prevailed, they confined their use of anti septics to the preservation of the dead from dis solution and not the living from disease.

DAILY MAIL, GUARDIAN AND OBSERVER BOOKS OF THE YEAR 2017 Winner of the 2018 PEN/E.O. Wilson Prize for Literary Science Writing Shortlisted for the 2018 Wellcome Book Prize and the 2018 Wolfson History Prize The story of a visionary British surgeon whose quest to unite science and medicine delivered us into the modern world - the safest time to be alive in human history In The Butchering Art, historian Lindsey Fitzharris recreates a critical turning point in the history of medicine, when Joseph Lister transformed surgery from a brutal, harrowing practice to the safe, vaunted profession we know today. Victorian operating theatres were known as 'gateways of death', Fitzharris reminds us, since half of those who underwent surgery didn't survive the experience. This was an era when a broken leg could lead to amputation, when surgeons often lacked university degrees, and were still known to ransack cemeteries to find cadavers. While the discovery of anaesthesia somewhat lessened the misery for patients, ironically it led to more deaths, as surgeons took greater risks. In squalid, overcrowded hospitals, doctors remained baffled by the persistent infections that kept mortality rates stubbornly high. At a time when surgery couldn't have been more dangerous, an unlikely figure stepped forward: Joseph Lister, a young, melancholy Quaker surgeon. By making the audacious claim that germs were the source of all infection - and could be treated with antiseptics - he changed the history of medicine forever. With a novelist's eye for detail, Fitzharris brilliantly conjures up the grisly world of Victorian surgery, revealing how one of Britain's greatest medical minds finally brought centuries of savagery, sawing and gangrene to an end. 'A brilliant and gripping account of the almost unimaginable horrors of surgery and post-operative infection before Joseph Lister transformed it all' Henry Marsh, author of Do No Harm

None of the doctors could figure it out. During the nineteenth century, surviving surgery was only half the battle. In many hospitals, 50 percent of amputees lived through their painful operations only to die soon afterward in their beds. Everyone had a theory for what doctors referred to as "hospitalism." But it was not until Joseph Lister and his pioneering work in antiseptic methods that death rates were greatly reduced after surgery. His work is so important that surgical history is divided into two eras: Before Lister and After Lister. Book jacket.
