Australia's favourite medical sleuths are back! 'Flies In The Ointment: Medical Quacks, Quirks And Oddities' is the third installment in Dr Jim Leavesley and Dr George Biro's bestselling 'Medical Mysteries' series, and it is their best and most entertaining yet - a rollicking and sometimes grisly collection of medical and celebrity whodunnits and whatdunnits.
What really killed Elvis Presley? Why did Dr Summerlin paint black patches onto white mice? How did Dr Michael Servetus come to be burnt as a heretic? What was Boswell's social disease? Why was Rasputin so indestructible? How did Mozart meet his demise?
Written with Leavesley and Biro's trademark clinical flair and knack for diagnosing the truth, this book reveals the often dark and seamy side of human nature and uncovers the important details the forensic pathologists missed! It's a prescription for intrigue, mystery and fun.
