PROFESSOR OF SECRETS, THE(ISBN=9781426206504) 英文原版 下载 fb2 pdf rb kindle 115盘 极速 azw3

In the tradition of Galileo's Daughter and Brunelleschi's

Dome, this exciting story illuminates the captivating world of the

late Renaissance—in this case its plagues, remedies, and

alchemy—through the life of Leonardo Fioravanti, a brilliant,

remarkably forward-thinking, and utterly unconventional doctor.

Fioravanti's marvelous cures and talent for self-aggrandizement

earned him the adoration of the people, the scorn of the medical

establishment, and a reputation as one of the age's most colorful,

combative figures. Written by Pulitzer-prize nominated historian

William Eamon, The Professor of Secrets entices readers into a

dangerous scientific underworld of sorcerers and surgeons.

Meticulously researched and engagingly written, this gripping

narrative will appeal to those interested in Renaissance history,

the development of science, and the historical thrillers so popular

today.
