The Physical Lincoln Sourcebook (1.0a)
This is the indispensable reference for Lincoln scholars, Lincoln presenters, or anyone wishing to challenge or extend the MEN2B hypothesis presented in the companion book The Physical Lincoln.
The Sourcebook is the databse of medical and physiological observations that underlie this new theory of Lincoln's health. It presents fully-organized medical histories for Lincoln, his sons, parents, and wife.
Special topics include the most complete accounts anywhere of Lincoln's syphilis, Lincoln's smallpox, Lincoln's 1841 slump, Mary's litany of symptoms, and Lincoln's gait. The hypothesis that Lincoln had SCA5 (spinocerebellar ataxia type 5) is convincingly refuted.
The book concludes with a 35-page annotated bibliography, designed to assist anyone approaching the Lincoln literature for the first time.

The Physical Lincoln (1.0a)
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.
