Retrolental Fibroplasia: A Modern Parable by William A. Silverman

[摘要] This 585-gm book had a gestational period of 30 years. It has been worth the wait. It is a remarkable book. It's clearly written, exciting, informative, and fascinating. It's also provocative and scary.Retrolental fibroplasia has been the subject of hundreds of scientific articles over the past 35 years, but the full story of that awful iatrogenic epidemic has never been told. This is it. Silverman is a master storyteller. He was a researcher and practitioner in the midst of the epidemic and involved in the events and decisions.
