The History of Plastic Surgery – Much More Than Skin Deep

Published to accompany an eponymous Grolier Club exhibition, this catalogue showcases rare books from a passionate collector and practicing surgeon. As the items in Douglas Monasebian's collection show, innovative plastic surgeons have been at the forefront of restoring the faces and bodies of those who were injured in wars or other traumatic events, affected by cancer or other illnesses, or afflicted with birth defects. Ranging from the sixteenth through the twentieth centuries, the books described show how the specialty evolved and highlight key events and groundbreaking developments.
