Carl J. Pfeiffer's Art and Practice of Western Medicine in the Early Nineteenth Century

Medical History has received a paperback reissue of Carl J. Pfeiffer's Art and Practice of Western Medicine in the Early Nineteenth Century.  Reviewing this book will give an interesting perspective of looking back the history of medicine about 30 years.  Any volunteer or recommendations?
