Doctors Work: The Legacy of Sir William Osler

Grant has spent countless hours with his camera photographing medical professionals in operating rooms & on hospital wards. A moment of silent communication when the physician takes a patient's hand; the complexity of the modern operating room; the physical acumen & intense concentration required in an operation; & the dedication, humility & love of humanity are richly portrayed in this book. There is also a profile of Sir William Osler, the 19th cent. physician & teacher who took his medical students out of the classroom & taught them at the bedside. Dr. Waugh recounts the story of how this great medical innovator changed the face of modern medicine. Quotes, taken from Oslers's book & lectures, give a personal insight into the world of medicine.Grant, Ted is the author of 'Doctors Work: The Legacy of Sir William Osler', published 1905 under ISBN 9781422350768 and ISBN 1422350762.
