THIRD THINKER
The gods killed a physician for discovering that blood could save a stranger's life.
Four thousand years later, someone is still keeping his promise.
The Promise of Asclepius follows the real history of blood transfusion — the discoveries, the failures, the people who were right too early and paid for it — wrapped inside a mythological story about the field that gave medicine its symbol.
