Historia medicinae  recently received this book for review.  It provides a unique perspective and pictorial look into the practice of medicine in other cultures often not covered in the history of medicine.  A greater appreciation of these cultures and their treatment of illness can be gained from this new text by Professor Peter de Smet. A more detailed review to come soon.
