Description
The Knife Man: Blood, Body Snatching, and the Birth of Modern SurgeryIn an era when bloodletting was considered a cure for everything from colds to smallpox, surgeon John Hunter was a medical innovator, an eccentric, and the person to whom anyone who has ever had surgery probably owes his or her life. In this sensational and macabre story, we meet the surgeon who counted not only luminaries Benjamin Franklin, Lord Byron, Adam Smith, and Thomas Gainsborough among his patients but also "resurrection men" among his close
In an era when bloodletting was considered a cure for everything from colds to smallpox, surgeon John Hunter was a medical innovator, an eccentric, and the person to whom anyone who has ever had surgery probably owes his or her life. In this sensational and macabre story, we meet the surgeon who counted not only luminaries Benjamin Franklin, Lord Byron, Adam Smith, and Thomas Gainsborough among his patients but also "resurrection men" among his close acquaintances. A captivating portrait of his ruthless devotion to uncovering the secrets of the human body, and the extraordinary lengths to which he went to do so--including body snatching, performing pioneering medical experiments, and infecting himself with venereal disease--this rich historical narrative at last acknowledges this fascinating man and the debt we owe him today.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect Fit
Color: B-navy blue
I recently bought an iPad (A16) 11th Generation and needed a case for protection. I had a similar case to this one for another iPad that I owned in the past and was very pleased with it. I tried to put my new iPad into that case, but it didn’t really fit well, so I had to purchase a new one. I found this case on Amazon at a good price. I received it on the second day and it fit perfectly! It also has a slot to hold my Apple Pencil, which the other case did not have. So I am very pleased with it.

Cute! Didn’t last long for me
Color: A-Pink, Color: A-Pink
Very cute and comfortable! Love the folding tabs. Unfortunately, I’ve only had this case for around 6-7 months, and it’s already cracked and chipped. I also always carry it in a protective case (aside from this one; a computer sleeve) so i don’t think i was being rough with it at all. Still works fine, and should protect the ipad. i’m just sad it cracked so soon! I would’ve kept it for much longer had it not. I do however take it to school/work everyday, so it did commute with me.

Great quality and functional
Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th, Model: iPad 11th A16 2025/10th
Fantastic screen protector! Adheres flawlessly and is easy to install. Doesn’t interfere with screen functionality and doesn’t go cloudy or hazy with use. It fits perfectly on my iPad 11 and was an absolute bargain compared to other protectors that cost 3x as much and never stayed in place without bubbling. Color is crystal clear, you can’t tell it’s there and it is easy to clean too! I definitely recommend!
