Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: An extremely entertaining miscellany that would make a good gift. - This is a most unusual paperbck. It is well bound and printed on heavy, smooth paper which gives crisp print and illustrations in glowing colour, which is superior to that used in many hardbacks. This makes it a delight to handle and really enhances one's reading experience. The contents are a fascinating miscellany of explorations and illustrations exploring the concepts of the body, medicine and world view of the middle ages. It is extremely entertaining and aimed at the general reader but will also fascinate the specialist too. It does rather concentrate on the middle of the middle ages -11th to 14th centuries- and makes no attempt to impose any chronological order, but does maintain a lively, well illustrated narrative throughout. I think this would make a good Christmas present for oneself or anyone else who has the slightest interest in history. Review: A very interesting read - For those who are interested in the history of medicine and medieval history in general this is a wonderful book. It is erudite and brings together a lot of abstruse information, which it does a very good job of clarifying e.g. the medieval concept of hair growth and brain function. It is written in a very easy going manner which makes it a pleasure to read. The illustrations are beautiful, well chosen and very nicely printed. I was not familiar with many of them even though I am interested in the above topics as a layperson and have seen a fair amount. Highly recommended! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 442,644 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 287 in Scientific History & Philosophy 386 in General Medical Issues Guides 775 in Medicine & Nursing | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (277) | | Dimensions | 16.5 x 4 x 24 cm | | Edition | Main | | ISBN-10 | 1781256799 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1781256794 | | Item weight | 755 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 352 pages | | Publication date | 29 Mar. 2018 | | Publisher | Wellcome Collection | ## Images ![Medieval Bodies - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91UXfWCaZOL.jpg) ![Medieval Bodies - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XtRHUy1QL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An extremely entertaining miscellany that would make a good gift. *by L***R on 5 November 2019* This is a most unusual paperbck.
