Mike and Zulu: you think malpractice is rough in our day, take this!
The Hammurabic code
of ancient Mesopotamia included a provision that: If a surgeon has opened an eye-infection with a bronze instrument and so saved the man s eye, he shall take ten shekels. If a surgeon has opened an eye-infection with a bronze instrument and thereby destroyed the man s eye, they shall cut off his hand.
