Missing from most conversations about how "everybody refused to listen to Semmelweis telling doctors to wash their hands after dissecting cadavers" is the info (here) about Semmelweis refusing to publish, only running 1 set of rather crappy animal experiments, and the Big Politics of Vienna at that particular moment.

Been wanting to read this for years; finally found an audio version through an online library (did you know you can get a card for the Ohio Digital Library even if you're not a resident, for free?!). Ten minutes in I'm already horrified. Unfortunately the narrator's voice is pretty obnoxious.
