Synopsis:
Despite William Osler's enduring importance, a single, well-indexed and easily searched source of his sayings has not been readily available to those seeking an apt quote for an article or talk, or for those who may just want to sample his thought-provoking and uplifting messages. "The Quotable Osler" is designed as a resource to fill this need and to introduce the wisdom of Osler to physicians of the 21st century. This volume includes over 800 quotations and numerous photographs of Osler.
