In The Knife Man, Wendy Moore unveils John Hunter's murky and macabre world - a world characterized by public hangings, secret expeditions to dank churchyards, and gruesome human dissections in pungent attic rooms. This is a fascinating portrait of a remarkable pioneer and his determined struggle to haul surgery out of the realms of meaningless superstitious ritual and into the dawn of modern medicine.

Great biography!

Moore does a maasterful job of weaving a tale chock full of details into a work that is easy to understand. John Hunter was a man ahead of his time who was undoubtedly the Father of Scientific Surgery.
