Zusammenfassung: | Tells the story of the infamous ""Goat Gland Doctor"" -- controversial medical charlatan, groundbreaking radio impresario, and prescient political campaigner -- and recounts his amazing rags to riches to rags career. A popular joke of the 1920s posed the question, ""What's the fastest thing on four legs?"" The punch line? ""A goat passing Dr. Brinkley's hospital!""It seems that John R. Brinkley's virility rejuvenation cure -- transplanting goat gonads into aging men -- had taken the nation by storm. Never mind that ""Doc"" Brinkley's medical credentials were shaky at best and that he prescribe. |
