Doctor My-book. British surgeon Dr. John Abernethy (1764–1831) wrote a number of books on medicine, the best known of which was Surgical observations on the constitutional Origin and Treatment of Local Diseases (1809). Very popular with his patients, he got the name Dr. My-book because like many an author he invariably told his patients, “Read my book,” whenever a medical question came up. |
