"This Is Our Work: The Legacy of Sir William Osler" by Ted Grant SIGNED BY TED GRANT, NUMBERED 241/250 Leather bound Hardcover Introduction by Douglas Waugh, M.D. Published by 5 Span Books, Pakenham, Ontario Canada, 1994 From the Book: "Sir William Osler 1849-1919 There is one person who exemplifies modern medicine as it is known throughout the world, and that is Sir William Osler. A Canadian by birth, Osler became highly regarded internationally through his chosen profession of medicine. Educated in Canada at the University of Toronto and having worked in his youth as a professor at McGill University, also in Canada, he went on to found the Department of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University in the United States and later became a professor emeritus of medicine at Oxford in England. His writings, both medical and philosophical, have been translated into more than 20 languages and emphasize the dedication and self-discipline required to practice the healing arts. No-one else in the field of medicine has so profoundly influenced the physician's attitude about the responsibility and dedication inherent in this profession. Accompanying most of the photographs in this book are quotations from Osler that have served to inspire physicians the world over. Like all great literature, Osler's writings recognize a universal body of knowledge about how the human species should act one towards the other." James W. Dutton, M.D.
