Funny, curious, fascinating, gruesome—Mould’s Medical Anecdotes
(Institute of Physics Publishing, £16.95/$33, ISBN 0 7503 0390 5)
is a collection of reports and cartoons with some connection to medicine,
however tenuous, that have amused or interested Richard Mould over the decades.
A sample scan will have you meeting Popeye, lead poisoning, varicose veins,
bread-buttering, giants and, of course, sex. An unreviewable book—an
enjoyable gallimaufry that defies analysis but demands high
recommendation.
