Rugendorff Erwin M.D. Urology and Philately. A Philatelic Ramble through Urology

New York: E-book. 2005. — 116 p.History recognizes many names and ignores even more. This fact is particularly true for philately. As a result, a philatelic version of any aspect
of the history of medicine cannot be totally comprehensive. The omission of any event or individual’s role in no way lessens the importance of the
impact or contribution. Through the use of philatelic material I have attempted to provide some insights into many major milestones of the history of urology and also to introduce the individuals involved. It is a journey through medical history from the antiquity to the present.
All the stamps and philatelic material shown are from my collection. Deciding what to omit has been as difficult as deciding what to include.
Though the resulting picture does not necessarily present continuity, it does emphasize certain peaks and memorable events in the evolvement of urology.
