This is a book on the history of drug discovery that highlights the intellectual splendor of discoverers as well as the human frailty associated with them. History is replete with examples of breakthrough medicines that have saved millions of lives. Ether as an anesthetic by Morton; penicillin as an antibiotic by Fleming; and insulin as an anti-diabetic by Banting are just a few examples. The discoverers of these medicines are doubtlessly benefactors to mankind - for instance, without penicillin, 75% of us probably would not be alive because some of our parents or grandparents would have succumbed to infections. The text is supplemented by many anecdotes, pictures and postage stamps. 410 0$aOxford scholarship online. 606 $aDrugs$vMiscellanea 606 $aNitrous oxide 606 $aSildenafil 615 0$aDrugs 615 0$aNitrous oxide. 615 0$aSildenafil. 676 $a362.29/9 700 $aLi$b Jie Jack$0440094 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777634903321 996 $aLaughing gas, Viagra, and Lipitor$93831472 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01306nam0 22003011i 450 001 UON00035337 005 20231205102120.317 010 $a96-522-6101-7 100 $a20020107d1992 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aIL 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aˆA ‰dictionary of Jewish Palestinian Aramaic of the Byzantine period$fby Michael Sokoloff 210 $aRamat-Gan$cBar-Ilan University Press$d1992 215 $a823 p.$d24 cm 316 $aFatt. 3.627 17.11.98$5IT-UONSI SEBIIA/035 N 410 1$1001UON00014723$12001 $aDictionaries of Talmud, Midrash and Targum$v2 606 $aLingua aramaica$xDizionari$xAramaico biblico$3UONC008028$2FI 620 $dRamat-Gan$3UONL002648 686 $aSEB II A$cSTUDI EBRAICI - LINGUISTICA - DIZIONARI$2A 700 1$aSOKOLOFF$bMichael$3UONV018036$0646428 712 $aBar-Ilan University Press$3UONV246855$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20250509$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00035337 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI SEB II A 035 N $eSI SA 89675 7 035 N Fatt. 3.627 17.11.98 996 $aDictionary of Jewish Palestinian Aramaic of the Byzantine period$91194113 997 $aUNIOR
