Osler, Osler, Osler. What about Osler, all these years after he departed the scene?
“The life and legacy of Sir William Osler (1849-1919) have been celebrated by nearly 1900 articles, 10 special issues of medical journals, several biographies, numerous lectures and orations, and regular meetings of ‘Osler Societies’ throughout the world. To what extent does this ‘industry’ reflect serious history as opposed to hagiography?”
