The greatest healers of Russia. Chronicle of historical medical discoveries

Ossii surprised the world with stunning successes in the development of anti -like vaccines. And what, actually surprised? It is enough to delve into the history of world medicine a little to understand that Russia has long been famous for outstanding doctors who have committed revolutionary coups in medical practice. For example, Nikolai Vasilievich Sklifosovsky. A general from medicine, amazing courage, a person who has made a breakthrough in the development of military field surgery. There is a known case when, during the Russian-Turkish war, he operated on four days in a row under the enemy Fire! Or Daniil Samoilovich, who during the terrible Moscow plague epidemic for the first time in history discovered the laws of disinfection, and in the Russian-Turkish war of 1787 personally went out and returned the seriously wounded A.V. Suvorov. And the great surgeon Nikolai Pirogov, who for the first time in the world introduced the concept of an antiseptic and for the first time did what they later began to call plastic surgery: he cut a new nose from leather on his face to a legless barber. He would know how women would redraw their faces in the 21st century! Why should this book be read? Because it is interesting, informative. Because another significant reason will appear to be proud of our country, our history. And make sure again: the health of our nation is in good hands
