Excellent overview of how animal surgery has been shaped by human-animal relationships. Explores the different surgical roles of animals – as patients, subjects of surgical experiments and suppliers of biological material for use in humans. Schlich is the leading historian of human surgery. - ABIGAIL WOODS
