The mystery of the exploding teeth and other curiosities from the history of medicine

Morris, Thomas (Thomas Neil Gareth)2019
Books
During the course of his research, historian Thomas Morris discovered hundreds of gruesome and often hilarious old medical case reports which for centuries have lain unnoticed in archives and journals. Intrigued by his discovery, he posted these bizarre tales on his blog, and before long what started as a niche online compendium attracted thousands of visitors every week. Indeed, one day his blog received 10,000 visits. Gathering momentum, feature articles also appeared online and in major publications such as 'National Geographic,' and Thomas's readership grew to include prominent medical and science writers who retweeted these comic, entertaining stories.
