THE Knife Man is amazing,about John Hunter, pretty much how surgery came about, later named a museum after him, they used to pay weirdos to dig up graves so they would have bodies to practice on,all true stuff amazing.
A Life In Surgery about Harvey Cushing,,,,,,,one of the first brain surgeons, amazing the stuff these guys went through to get where we are today.
The world without us,,,,,,,,,,,,about if humans sudenly vanished from earth but our pets and jobs and electricity and power plants,oil fields and so on were still up and running,how would it all come apart,and how long would it take,plant life and everything. Freakin great book.
The Lost City Of Z,,,,,,,,,,,,About an amazing journey by several groups but mainly P H Fawcett in search for the lost city in the amazon.
All very cool books that I think about all the time.Trust me they are good.THeir is another one I read recently I think called THe FamilyTHat Couldnt Sleep,about prions,a disease that has to do with protiens and it gets into mad cow and scrapie and such,very interesting but not well known so dont expect to talk about it with too many others unless you just wanta brag about something they dont know about. Good read though.
