Description: Marketplace of the Marvelous : The Strange Origins of Modern Medicine, Paperback by Janik, Erika, ISBN 0807061115, ISBN-13 9780807061114, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US “Astronomy was preceded by Astrology. Modern medical science was preceded by snake oil and homeopathy. … A compelling story, in graceful prose, of what happens when error, greed and fashion rule the marketplace of medical ideas. What Lewis Thomas called 'The Youngest Science'—medicine based on cell and molecular biology—is young, indeed; and this fin reminds us of how far we have come.” —Gerald Weissmann, MD, author of Epigenetics in the Age of Twitter.
