What were the principal of causes of death in the past? Could your ancestor have been affected? How was disease investigated and treated, and what did our ancestors think about illness and the accidents that might befall them? Simon Willis's survey of the diseases that had an impact on their lives seeks to answer these questions. His graphic, detailed account offers an unusual and informative view of the threats that our ancestors lived with and died of.
