Overview
"This volume presents biographies of pioneers in the life sciences (famous anatomists, biologists, bacteriologists, biochemists and others), beginning with Hippocrates (the ""father of medicine"") in 460 B.C. up through 1910 when Paul Ehrlich announced his success in dealing with syphilis. The profiles illuminate the history of the field, and the attempts, successes, failures."
