"Here is an amazing book. Amazing because, translated from the English, ithas all the allure of a French work of supreme craftmanship. Amazing, moreover,because of the erudition and the intimate knowledge of French society in theXIXth century, of which the authors have shown proof."--Revue deneurologie, "The authors...are recognized experts in the history of French neurology...Their collaboration has produced a superb book, the most comprehensive and authoritative work to date on Charcot and his time....Those with an interest in neuroscience or medical history who venture into its pages will not be able to put it down."--The New England Journal of Medicine "This excellent book surveys Charcot's life and career. The three authors have melded their clinical and historical talents to relate Charcot to the France of his time. This work is recommended to anyone interested in the early development of clinical neurology."-JAMA "A seamlessly woven portrait of a man and his age that at last does full justice to the sitter and his major contributions to neurology and psychiatry....Wherever future studies of Charcot and his works may lead them, historical scholars will remain deeply indebted to Drs. Goetz, Bonduelle, and Gelfand for having provided a definitive account of his life and a penetrating evaluation of his importance for the development of modern neurology and psychiatry."--Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease "[Authored] by an international triumvirate of well known medical historians...Very well written, organized, and illustrated."--Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences "The authors comprise a fortunate combination of an American neurologist with strong historical interests, a French neurologist with similar credentials, and a professional historian of medicine.

Amazing because, translated from the English, it has all the allure of a French work of supreme craftmanship.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
