As promised, the folks at TEDMED are releasing new select videos from last year’s conference. The latest batch includes talks by David Agus, AJ Jacobs, and short presentations by Jay Walker about the history of medicine as relayed through the various books and objects found in his amazing library.
There being over a dozen of new videos to watch, we thought we’d get you started with Jay Walker talking about the earliest medical devices, how war gave rise to practical and effective surgery, and how medicine was hijacked to maximize pain during the Inquisition.
