2005., Adult, Price-Patterson Call No: FR 362.198 H669b Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: Les fondateurs d'un petit hôpital de dix lits en 1904 n'auraient jamais pu imaginer que cet établissement deviendrait un centre mondialement connu pour sa chirurgie cardiaque de pointe et ses recherches novatrices sur la génétique. Ils seraient également étonnés de savoir qu'il est désormais possible de contrôler le diabète et de guérir la leucémie grâce à des traitements courants. Le premier siècle d'existence de l'Hôpital de Montréal pour enfants, s'éntendant sur une bonne partie du XXᵉ siècle, a connu des progrès fulgurants qui ont permis de sauver la vie d'enfants et d'améliorer leur santé. Cinq auteurs, secondés par une équipe de chercheurs-rédacteurs, de chargés de la coordination éditoriale ainsi que de photographes, donnent un aperçu à la fois instructif et divertissant de cet établissement en évolution constante ainsi que des patients, du personnel et des équipes d'enseignement et de recherche qui constituent la grande "famille" de l'HME.

2005., Price-Patterson Call No: 362.198 H669b Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: The founders of a small, 10-bed hospital in 1904 could have had no way of knowing that it would evolve into an internationally known centre of pioneering heart surgery and genetic research. Nor could they have imagined the now common treatments that would control diabetes and cure leukemia. The first 100 years of The Montreal Children's Hospital, which spanned most of the 20th century, were a time of dizzying progress in improving--and saving--children's lives. Five authors, supported by a team of writer-researchers, editors, and photographers, provide an informative and entertaining look inside this ever-changing institution and its "family" of patients, staff and teaching and research teams.
