Booklist - 06/01/2023 Who better to create the Edge of Medicine series (6 titles) than the Mayo Clinic? Each volume immediately grabs the reader’s attention through an opening, high-interest account of a recent medical breakthrough. Next, individual chapters chronologically introduce scientific discoveries that have collectively contributed to today’s medical practices and ongoing research. The text is clear and accompanied by photos, reproductions, models, and diagrams, but advanced readers may benefit more from the included details and higher-level concepts. Vaccine Breakthroughs looks at the origins of vaccines, their historical impact on saving lives, and their recent effectiveness, such as against COVID-19. Spotlights on Mayo Clinic scientists and concluding time lines offer more context to curious readers. - Copyright 2023 Booklist.
