Ambroise Pareé and Urology

This volume provides an overview of the life and accomplishments of Ambroise Paré, one of the great pioneers of surgery and even a forerunner of modern surgery. Although Urology was not a major concern for Paré, he placed Urology within the domain of surgery, guiding the growth of this discipline. His description of urological diseases therefore deserves to be presented to modern urologists. This book presents the maximum of passages dealing with urology within the current limits of the definition of this specialty. These texts with original illustrations are presented in chronological order of Paré's complete works.
