"When will the time finally come that there will be no need to cry about the fact that the day is not made of 40 hours? ...I work like the last day laborer," Sergey Petrovich Botkin lamented. Today it is safe to say that his labors were not in vain. Being a participant in the Crimean War, he was the first to propose a system for organizing assistance to wounded soldiers and became the founder of Russian military surgery. It was he who described Botkin's disease and created the Russian Epidemiological Society to combat infectious diseases and epidemics of plague, cholera and smallpox. Sergey Petrovich opened the first women's medical courses in Russia, used a thermometer for the first time to determine a person's temperature and developed a hygiene system for doctors. In this book, Sergey Petrovich talks about the most difficult and interesting cases that he had to face during medical practice, and also tells how to talk to the patient, what should be paid attention to first of all, how to build a patient treatment system.
