Medical Inventions: The Best of Health (Inventions That Shaped the World (Prebound)) by Jill Bryant

Each title in this series is supported by an appropriate, compact back matter including a timeline, a list for further reading (both print and online resources), a glossary, and an index. The written texts are complemented by bright photography, well-captioned diagrams, and thoughtful sidebars with extra detail. The overall package is colourful and well put-together. Despite some limitations, this series is a good choice for public and school libraries.
