Produktbeschreibung
Foot Health Myths, Facts & Fables 'Foot Health Myths' is an easy-to-read book that dips in and out of topics while reflecting upon the work of the podiatrist. This book is illustrated with 88 pictures, complete with references to sources contained within its 216 pages, divided into 7 chapters. Packed with anecdotes, often associated with the Greeks and Romans, that influenced the language of medicine, unknown facts emerge to astound. The reader is transformed between bizarre subjects, from trench foot to the foot in outer space, from bacterial to viral infections, from a Canadian trapper's flat feet to death from an infected toe in Australia. But, for the reader, what is true, false, or just a tall tale? For the layperson who wants a bit more academic detail, for the student seeking a career choice, or for the health care worker wanting insight into the matters of foot health medicine - it's all here! What readers have said "Beautifully conceived and flows with questions and answers at a level I can understand where everything is explained clearly. It is engaging and accessible without dwelling too long on anything. It is written in a style that doesn't talk down to me, not trying to impress, not dry and boring." Shaun Global "This is a fascinating book and even though you may not suffer personally from the many foot problems, it is written succinctly. Stuffed with an abundance of facts, supported by figures and data engrossing historical references, together with the origins of medical terminology, make for enlightened reading." Sid Gibson "Read this book, and you will find much about what it is to be human, not least the healthy dollops of sex and politics. This book will go a long way to dispel some snake oil fantasies that can cost the footsore so dear. I was utterly absorbed and enthralled by it." Professor Tim Kilmartin, "I found the book well researched, intriguing and loved the historical fable additions and anecdotes relating to humorous incidents and stories." Jane Clare, Podiatrist
