The Harvey Cushing/John Hay Whitney Medical Library just released this book for viewing on the internet.

This makes for interesting reading between the bouts…

John Fulton’s book was published in 1946 and I recommend it to anyone
really interested in neurosurgery.

Looking at his pictures on pg. 564 (H.C. Viewing an X-ray Film and Surgeon and Patient)
I felt a deja vu… and then realized that I once met a neurosurgical resident in Chicago
who being somewhat taller than Cushing, had similar build and almost identical facial features…

Has anyone else seen the reincarnation of Dr. Cushing?
