More about the book

Focusing on the treatment and societal attitudes towards children with injuries and birth defects, this volume reveals a rich history often overlooked. Contrary to the belief that ancient societies neglected affected children, it showcases evidence from ancient Egypt, India, Greece, and Islamic cultures where physicians actively sought remedies. The essays trace the evolution of children's surgery from its origins to modern practices and delve into common visceral birth defects, appealing to medical professionals and historians alike.
