About this product

Product Information

'This is history with a surgeon's touch: deft, incisive and sometimes excruciatingly bloody' The Sunday Times 'Utterly eccentric and riveting' Mail on Sunday 'Eye-opening and, frequently, eye-watering . . . a book that invites readers to peer up the bottoms of kings, into the souls of rock stars and down the ear canals of astronauts' The Daily Telegraph How did a decision made in the operating theatre spark hundreds of conspiracy theories about JFK? How did a backstage joke prove fatal to world-famous escape artist Harry Houdini? How did Queen Victoria change the course of surgical history? Through dark centuries of bloodletting and of amputations without anaesthetic to today's sterile, high-tech operating theatres, surgeon Arnold van de Laar uses his experience and expertise to tell an incisive history of the past, present and future of surgery. From the dark centuries of bloodletting and of amputations without anaesthetic to today's sterile, high-tech operating theatres, UNDER THE KNIFE is both a rich cultural history, and a modern anatomy class for us all.

The seller sent a different edition to the one advertised in the photo. The edition they sent is the standard current one which I could’ve easily bought on the high street. The reason I placed the order was because it was an older, possibly out of print edition advertised. I am extremely unhappy with this, and feel that the seller deliberately deceived buyers with this false representation.

The book itself is in perfect condition, however the image provided is misleading which is disappointing for me. I purposely order from Ebay to get the original cover (as advertised) as it's unavailable on Amazon but I've received the new cover, same one I could have purchased on Amazon for £1.50 cheaper

  • It is what it says on the cover

    It was well written and would appeal to lay people and medics. Good source material Glad surgery has progressed from its gruesome beginnings
