Benjamin Rush, from "The History of Medicine"
Artist
Robert Thom

Professional, moral, and physical courage of Dr. Benjamin Rush (1745-1813) was taxed to exhaustion during the 1793 yellow fever epidemic in Philadelphia, capital of the the new United States of America. Those residents who could, fled; those who could not were decimated by disease. Horror and hysteria reigned. Hundreds died daily.

The only place where Claude Bernard (1813-1878) felt at home, outside experimental laboratories, was a the provincial farm near Saint-Julien (Rhône), France, where he was born.
