       L'incroyable histoire de la médecine.

520    "In the Middle Ages, surgery was performed by barbers due 
       to their skill with sharp instruments. In the mid-19th 
       century, a "grand exhibition" of the effects of laughing 
       gas inadvertently led to the discovery of anesthesia. 
       Three decades later, Louis Pasteur enjoyed a crucial 
       breakthrough in his search for vaccinations because his 
       assistant decided, against his orders, to take a vacation.
       Here, cardiac surgeon and professor of medical history 
       Jean-Noël Fabiani stitches together the most significant 
       and intriguing episodes from the history of medicine, from
       chance breakthroughs to hard-fought scientific 
       discoveries. Spanning centuries and crossing continents, 
       this funny, fast-paced yet rigorously detailed graphic 
       novel guides us through one of the most wondrous strands 
       of human history, covering everything from bloodletting to
       organ donation, X-rays, and prosthetics."--Amazon.
