"Like a work of art, a medical image or a piece of medical paraphernalia has a period style. This is not simply a surface gloss, a decorative mode that stands in a superficial relationship to the true function of the item. Function and the 'look' of something are not separate, since any action is hedged around by attitudes, hostile and approbatory, and our instinctive visual reaction to any item in a field as highly charged as medicine will be an itegral part of the social field within which participants function."--from the foreword by Martin Kemp
