This book, completed posthumously following Osler's plan, presents a procession of scientific achievement. The first section, represents the evolution of science and medicine through seminal works, arranged chronologically from Hippocrates to Röntogen, with other sections housing a fine collection of erary works relating to medicine and what Osler termed "medicated novels".
