| Sumario: | Thomas Schlich's detailed and compelling history puts modern organ transplantation into its historical context by unraveling its forgotten technical, conceptual, and social origins between the 1880s and 1930s. Specifically, this study analyses the emergence of the idea of surgical organ replacement within the context of nineteenth-century academic surgery and physiology. Schlich's study ultimately tells the story of the unsuccessful attempts to develop transplantation into a viable therapeutic option. |
