Science/medicine in literature, a favour

[Gordon, Alex]

Hello all,

A good friend of mine has a job interview coming up in a few weeks and she's
been told to research the history of science and medicine in literature.
She's a bit nervous, so I told her that I'd ask the capable folk on the
Pynchon list for some ideas, as many people there, being Pynchon fans and
all, seem to be rather well-acquainted with both the science and the
literature... So, if you may be so kind, could you point me in the direction
of some decent and relevant articles/books that you know of, or maybe throw
in some ideas on the subject that you think might be useful to her? I - and
subsequently she - would be very grateful. Her research is meant to be
focused more on the medicine side of science, and specifically the heart, so
the Pynchon rocket stuff unfortunately mightn't be of too much use here, but
any advice or information you can dispense would be very much appreciated.

Best,

Alex
