Organ Transplantation and Blood Transfusion in Twentieth-Century America
Organ transplantation is one of the most dramatic interventions in modern medicine. Since the 1950s, thousands of people have lived with “new” hearts, kidneys, lungs, corneas, and other organs and tissues transplanted into their bodies. But, even before the 1950s, American surgeons had attempted to treat catastrophic disease or injuries using tissues and organs retrieved from the bodies of other people and other species.
The Puzzle Time series uses the fun of puzzles to teach language ranging from the alphabet and animals to the present perfect and past continuous.
There are quizzes, mazes, crosswords, mirror writing, join the dots, silhouettes and a wide range of other activities. Each puzzle is accompanied by detailed teacher’s notes.
