doctors through time; who, when and what
Most of my exams will be quite easy to me, and for history, i have the technique and know how to answer depending on how the questions are worded. But i struggle to remember peoples' names, what they did and when, can you think of ways of helping to remember, such as pneumonics or rhymes??
Some people like Jenner, Pasteur and Fleming, i've been taught about many times, over many years, in history and science, so there names and what they did are embeded in my memory, but with other things i get confused.
Hippocrates the greek, the four humours, observe an illness before treating
Galen-the-Greek who went to rome, could only dissect animals and said humans were the same inside.
Vesalius from the renaissance who dissected stuff and proved that we are different to animals
Pare was a battlefield doctor who ran out of boiling oil to use on wounds, so used roman herbs and the soldiers survived. 'don't do something that doesn't work, just because its been done for hundreds of years, if there's a better remedy, use it!'
Harvey the 16th centuary doctor who discovered that blood pumps around the body
John snow realised that cholera was being spread from a certain water pump because a woman who lived near it didn't use it and never got cholera (or was it that she lvied a logn way away and she did get cholera and none of her neighbours did?)
Chadwick was from the industrial revolution time who wrote a report saying that if they improved the conditions for the poor people, their rich factory owner bosses would benefit aswell as they would have more fit and healthy workers.
Lister was a victorian doctor who discovered and promoted antiseptic surgery
Simpson gave chloroform to queen victoria, after which more people used it.

Molly, sorry love but I am with LL on this one, while I have no doubt you seem a bright intelligent person, you do come over as rather 'old' for a 16 yr old, who always seems to be taking a swipe at your parents, this time for not being up early, last time it was the Mum makes me walk home from school sometimes in the rain and won't give me extra money for the increase in my bus fare, the time before, Dad only buys cheap grisly meat full of fat that we all have to eat on Sundays !
so forgive me if I can't grasp the fact that you are as you say 16, your header does come over as someone who is quite learned, yet these ones I have mentioned come over as a 'poor me'
I don't what to believe..LOL
