The Mystery of the Exploding Teeth: And Other Curiosities from the History of Medicine - Hardcover
In this unbelievable but true collection of stories from the world of medicine, discover why teeth started exploding in the 19th century, why (and how!) a Rhode Island woman peed through her nose, and what happened when a a boy began honking like a goose after inhaling a bird's larynx. Author Thomas Morris, award-winning medical historian, shares these anecdotes with the reader and takes them on a journey through the improvements that came to the medical profession over the last two hundred years. As amusing as it is horrifying, The Mystery of the Exploding Teeth is a testament to human curiosity, ingenuity, and endurance. (This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
