About the book: 2010 / We love to remember great people and admire their creations. But few people know that they could have created much more outstanding works if they had not become victims of would-be doctors. Beethoven could have lived several more happy years if he had not taken the medicine from the hands of his own doctor. Van Gogh was not crazy - he was simply taking a drug that was erroneously prescribed to him. The victims of medical errors were Sigmund Freud, Karl Marx, Winston Churchill, Ernest Hemingway, Franz Kafka... However, you can find out which other celebrities suffered from unfortunate doctors from this book. Its author, Jörg Zittlau, is known to Russian readers from the bestsellers “The Ideal Diet for 4 Blood Types”, “Oddities of Evolution. Fascinating biology" and others.
