Ariel; Essays on the Arts and the History and Philosophy of Medicine

摘要

Felix Marti-Ibanfiez' literary cornucopia overflows again. His latest offering consists of forty-two essays on a wide range of topics which reflect his interests in literature, travel, the arts, and medical history. The collection is appropriately entitled. These pieces are highly personalized and romantic in spirit. Like Ariel, they are also a little elusive and sometimes insubstantial. They partake of the highly seasoned flavor of MD magazine and have the unmistakable feel of glossy paper.
