    Carter, Neil. "Repairing the Athletic Body: Treatments, Practices and Ethics." Medicine, Sport and the Body: A Historical Perspective. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2012. 128–150. Bloomsbury Collections. Web. 26 Sep. 2021. <http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781849662062.ch-006>. Downloaded from Bloomsbury Collections, www.bloomsburycollections.com, 26 September 2021, 18:30 UTC.

You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 6 Repairing the Athletic Body Treatments, Practices and Ethics uring the 1988 Seoul Olympics the British middle-distance runner Peter DElliott sustained an injury to his groin. In order for him to continue competing at the Games he was given a cortisone injection before each subsequent race. Even though he could now race, it meant that the injury would be exacerbated and it would eventually keep him out of athletics for more than a year. For Elliott the knowledge of the consequences of this injury was compensated with the silver medal that he won in the 1,500 metres. 1 The case in point highlighted not only some of the dilemmas that athletes faced regarding injuries, particularly how far can they push their bodies before they sustain serious injury but also that essentially elite sport is about excess rather than the cultivation of a healthy body. The bodies of professional sportsmen and women have a limited amount of ‘athletic capital’ that allows them to compete for a certain number of years. Any ‘athletic death’ is not only conditioned by the ageing process but also by the wear and tear infl icted on them through training and competition.

  • The History of the Surgical Service at San Francisco General Hospital
    THE HISTORY OF THE SURGICAL SERVICE AT SAN FRANCISCO GENERAL HOSPITAL William Schecter, Robert Lim, George Sheldon, Norman Christensen, William Blaisdell i DEDICATION This book is dedicated to our patient and understanding wives Gisela Schecter, Carolee Lim, Ruth Sheldon, Sally Christensen, and Marilyn Blaisdell. Their help and support not only made our careers possible but also ensured that they would be successful. ii PREFACE I was delighted and honored to be asked to assist in the publication of this landmark book on the History of Surgery in the San Francisco General Hospital. The authors are to be commended on their accurate, readable and historic portrayal of the evolution of this center of excellence in trauma and general surgical patient care. As I read through the manuscript, it brought back warm and clear memories of days spent here both as a junior medical student and later as a resident in the University of California, San Francisco surgical program. It presents an impressive timeline of surgeons who have taught here, a number of whom have moved on and become outstanding leaders in the field of surgery. After 40 years of practice as a surgeon, I look back on my training here at this hospital as one of the most important contributors to my overall surgical and medical education. This hospital and its surgical staff imbued me with the essential knowledge and technical skills necessary to be an accomplished general surgeon and, most importantly, they taught me the value of seeking advice from a more experienced specialist when the occasion arose. I feel certain that every surgeon, who during their training has passed through the portals of San Francisco General Hospital, will also find in this book a powerful reminder of how important it has been in their life.
