Thames & Hudson The Sick Rose: Or; Disease and the Art of Medical Illustration

Easy to read and understand. Fascinating facts on the Victorian take on various diseases such as Leprosy, Cancer and Cholera. The art is taken from scientific drawings and brings together some interesting and sometimes pretty gruesome diseases. I've been reading this from page to page and I've really enjoyed it.

lovely book. very detailed pictures of diseases and how the body looks . good for general interest. some may not like pictorial details. .I did

Absolutely love this book. The quality is impeccable. The page quality is amazing. Not flimsy at all. The overall finish of the book is absolutely beautiful. I love anything medically related so buying this book was a must.Very interesting read and the images compliment it beautifully

Hard to do justice in a review to the quality of the printing. I can't remember having seen another book which has clearly had so much effort put in to getting the images and text absolutely perfect, apart from the sister book, "Crucial Interventions" to which these comments apply equally.Book Depository dispatched it promptly, and their description was entirely fair.

Such an beautiful book, full of interesting facts and images. I found this book while browsing and I was hesitant to buy but I'm so glad I did.Please go buy this book you won't be disappointed.Beautiful condition, quick delivery very happy I did.
