Ten Drugs: How Plants, Powders, and Pills Have Shaped the History of Medicine
Thomas Hager
Beginning with opium, the "joy plant," which has been used for 10,000 years, Hager's subjects include the largely forgotten female pioneer who introduced smallpox inoculation to Britain; the infamous knockout drops; the first antibiotic, which saved countless lives; the first antipsychotic, which helped empty public mental hospitals; Viagra, statins; and the new frontier of monoclonal antibodies.
