Fabulous June 4, 2006
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is without doubt one of the best history books I have ever had the pleasure to read. It is witty ,erudite, voluminous and entertaining. It covers a vast area of human, medical and enlightenment history, often diverting the reader to think of Porter's equally magnificent book on the enlightenment.
It is a tragedy that Dr Porter passed away before the publication of this book and deprived him of the satisfaction of seeing the reception this book received. His early death has also deprived us one of our finest historical minds.
