Excellent historical story. Every medical student or those who wish to become medical students should read this book to understand the basis of medicine and the strong personality needed to succeed

Fantastic. Very well done. Anyone who works in healthcare would appreciate this book!

A great view of the past. It’s so apparent why people have medical issues today with doctors, hospitals, and going under the knife! This history is a gruesome best and must read!

An absolutely incredible book. I have a lot to say about Dr. Lindsey Fitzharris’s “The Butchering Art,” that I can’t possibly distill into an as eloquent and adequately adulatory statement as I would like it to be, given the character limit here. However, I’m going to attempt it. It’s been a while since I’ve read a book as captivating, powerful, vivid, uplifting, and impactful as “The Butchering Art.” From start to finish, you are swept up in this incredible tale of Joseph Lister’s life, bearing witness to his trials, his triumphs, and the awe-inspiring depth of his commitment to save lives. Dr. Fitzharris effortlessly illustrates Lister’s world - you can practically hear the rending of flesh and the slicing of tendons as she yanks you straight out of your armchair or bus seat, and deposits you in the front row of the operating theatre. Her writing is both incredibly evocative and graphic, and she depicts both surgical procedures and Lister’s personal journeys with equal ease. For books that focus on hard sciences, there is the potential risk of sounding dry or overly technical; no such worry here with Dr. Fitzharris. She brings Lister and his legacy to life so beautifully. The way she delves into Lister’s personal battles - and shows us not only the scientist with whom we are familiar, but also the deeply compassionate man who fought tooth and nail to improve the lives of his patients - will forever change the way you understand just how essential Lister’s role was in shaping modern surgery. I finished the book both humbled by Joseph Lister's dedication to advancing science and medicine, and also thoroughly inspired by Dr. Fitzharris’s impeccable storytelling abilities. “The Butchering Art” is one of those rare books where you reach the last page, and wish desperately that there was still more to read. Thank you, Dr. Fitzharris, for this beautiful book, for all the research and effort that went into it, and for honouring Lister’s legacy so magnificently. I loved every word of it.

B. Captivating and frustrating to be a part of the evolution of modern medicine that. This books have great detail, it was almost as if I could smell the rot and disease.
