Description:

Specially priced for the rest of March, The Physical Lincoln combines careful historical research with the keen eye of a medical Sherlock Holmes to answer the many medical mysteries of Abraham Lincoln.

The startling conclusion: Lincoln had a hereditary cancer syndrome called MEN2B that would have killed him within months, had he not been shot.

The diagnosis explains not only Lincoln's height and unusual appearance, but also his habit of "lounging," the early deaths of his mother and three of his sons, and the reason that so many people incorrectly thought Lincoln had depression.

The author, Dr. John Sotos, is a cardiologist and a graduate of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He is a medical advisor to the popular television series House, MD.
