Beyond the white coat, beyond the textbook, lie the people.
We use their names every day-Down, Parkinson, Alzheimer...
But who were they?
Beyond the White Coat uncovers the riveting, and often heartbreaking, human stories behind medicine's most famous names. These are not just labels; they are tales of curiosity, adversity, and sacrifice.
You'll meet Robert Graves, who saved a sinking ship with only an axe, and reformers like John Down, who fought for more compassionate care for the intellectually disabled.
Spanning centuries and continents, this book connects you to the individuals whose passions and struggles left an indelible mark on medical science, proving that even in a world of labels and diagnoses, it's the people who leave the most lasting legacy.
