review 1: Smoking Ears and Screaming Teeth is a brief history of scientific experimentation, featuring scientists and doctors who acted as their own test subjects, ingesting and injecting all manner of substances into their own bodies, all in the name of discovery. For example, zoologist Frank Buckland, who would eat *anything* in his quest to expand the human diet, and Nobel-prize-winning surgeon Werner Forssman, who injected a catheter into his own heart. Obviously, this book is not for the squeamish, but if you enjoy really entertaining non-fiction, check out Screaming Ears and Smoking Teeth.Recommended by Abe
review 2: This is a fairly entertaining and easy to read book which includes a good bit of medical and general innovation history in the anecdotes of self exper... moreimentation. It's probably more like 3.5 stars rather than 4. The only real complaint I have is that it's not super cohesive in regards to topic or timeline. To a certain extent that's to be expected of a book like this but I thought it was a little too all over the place. less
