The doctors in Shakespeare's plays. Part One.
It is surprising how much medical data there are in Shakespeare's 37 plays. There are concise descriptions that pertain to the practice of medicine in those days and, when we look closer, even to medicine today. His plays provide a continual source of inspiration and enjoyment 350 years after he wrote them.
