章節(jié)摘錄

  During this century the art of medicine has progressed at a fast clip. famous British surgeon Joseph Lister announced around 1900 a “foreseeable end” to human disease. Unfortunately, he was wrong, and hosts of viruses have taken anew lease on life (our life), helped along in their travels by our own frantic flying all over the globe. Wilhelm Roentgens x-rays, which won the first Nobel Prize in physics, in 1901, got us off to a splendid start; the gap between the old and the new medicine can be measured by contemporary comments that it might become possible to photograph the human soul. It didnt, but by 1950 x-rays had saved the lives of some 30 million children, according to the estimate of a later Nobel-winning physicist, Arthur Compton. Sulfa drugs came around 1940, followed by penicillin and other antibiotics and the present armory of electronic and chemical tools to fight afflictions that earlier could be mitigated but not cured. The increase in life expectancy tells itmfrom forty=nine years in 1900 to seventy- five years or more in the late 1990s. The effect on individual, adults is less startling, because the drop in infant mortality in the West is the primary cause of the increase. (It has dropped from one in ten to less than one in a hundred during the first year of life.) But a man of forty -,viii live about five years longer now than he would have in 1950, and he is healthier all along. The state of health of an eighty-year-old man now is comparable to the state of health of a seventy-year-old man twenty years ago.
