  Hippocrates is credited with being the first physician to really focus on surgery as a medical practice. He and his team of surgeons would often operate on patients with a variety of different ailments. This was a major shift from previous medical practices, which often focused on simply treating the symptoms of an illness, rather than attempting to cure it. Hippocrates and his team pioneered many surgical techniques that are still used today, and their work helped to revolutionize medicine as a whole. Read in English, unabridged.

  Echoes From the Deep - The...

  On May 1, 1915, the majestic RMS Lusitania departed from New York, bound for Liverpool, navigating through the escalating tensions of a war-torn Europe. Just six days later, the Cunard liner met a tragic fate, sinking into the depths of the Atlantic after being struck by a German torpedo. The catastrophe claimed the lives of over a thousand passengers, sending shockwaves across the world and profoundly influencing the American stance on World War I. 
  At the heart of this investigation lies a provocative thesis: the tragic loss of life on the Lusitania was not merely a consequence of wartime hostilities but was exacerbated by decisions and actions that could have been averted. Through detailed analysis, the book questions the accountability of the captain and crew, challenging readers to reconsider the extent to which their actions — or inactions — contributed to the disaster. 
  But this story is not confined to the ill-fated ship alone. "Echoes From the Deep" also examines the broader ramifications of the Lusitania's sinking on American public opinion. The tragedy stirred a powerful emotional response, turning the tide of sentiment and drawing the United States closer to joining the global conflict.  
  Blending historical rigor with compelling storytelling, "Echoes From the Deep" explores tragedy, responsibility, and the complex interplay between individual actions and larger historical forces. This book is essential for history enthusiasts, maritime scholars, and anyone intrigued by the profound impact of the Lusitania disaster on the American war effort.

  “Tells the story of anger, disillusionment, and determination of Americans to develop a political movement to fight chemical pollution . . . timely.” —The Huffington PostThis book, named one of Booklist’s Top 10 books on sustainability in 2014, is the first to offer a comprehensive examination of the environmental health movement, which unlike many parts of the environmental movement, focuses on ways toxic chemicals and other hazardous agents in the environment effect human health and well-being. Born in 1978 when Lois Gibbs organized her neighbors to protest the health effects of a toxic waste dump in Love Canal, New York, the movement has spread across the United States and throughout the world. By placing human health at the center of its environmental argument, this movement has achieved many victories in community mobilization and legislative reform. In The Rise of the U.S. Environmental Health Movement, environmental health expert Kate Davies describes the movement’s historical, ideological, and cultural roots and analyzes its strategies and successes.“Kate Davies’ excellent book focuses on the role of health in the environmental health movement and encourages us to consider its origins and accomplishments . . . The Rise of the U.S. Environmental Health Movement looks both back and forward to challenge us to consider our current direction. In the future this book will provide readers with an important perspective on how the environmental health movement shaped our society.” —Toxipedia“A well-done history of America’s environmental health movement . . . offers readers valuable information on how grassroots organizing prevents harm from toxic exposures and leads to safe and healthy communities.” —Lois Marie Gibbs, Executive Director, Center for Health, Environment & Justice
