The Strange Case of the Walking Corpse: A Chronicle of Medical Mysteries, Curious Remedies, and Bizarre But True Healing Folklore Tapa blanda - 2004 - 1st Edición
de Nancy Butcher
An intriguing survey of the world of health and medicine from curious remedies to uncommon conditions.
The history of healing is full of curiosities-some based on time-honored folklore, others straight from the medical journals. With uncommon wit and insight, Nancy Butcher has assembled a rare collection of medical facts and fallacies from arcane remedies to contemporary "miracles." By turns instructive and awe-inspiring, this remarkable compendium is a glimpse into the history of mankind's quest for perfect health and fascination with the functions of the human body.
Resumen
Did you know that bananas can cure warts; chewing on raw ginger can relieve nausea; sniffing vanilla can help suppress your appetite; or that raw potato can soothe a burn?
Healing is full of curious remedies-some based on time-honored folklore, others straight from the medical journals. Nancy Butcher has gathered together some of the most unusual natural cures that have been proven effective today, and even throws in some unbelievable and-thankfully-abandoned therapies from times past.
Filled with case histories of unique illnesses, historic documentation of strange medical practices, and the author's own insightful commentary, this book explains not only how to cure headaches, sleep better, and improve your sex life, but also that people with Cotard's syndrome actually believe they are dead.
Primera línea
My fascination with medicine began when I was a young girl in Tokyo, where my grandfather Hiroshi Sakata was a doctor.
