Brinkley, who performed over 600 surgeries involving the transplantation of goat glands to rejuvenate both men and women. The content centers on Brinkley's theories about the relationship between sex glands and vitality, and the claims made about his procedures' success in restoring youth and treating various ailments. At the start of the text, the author sets the stage by discussing the historical context of gland transplantation and its rejection by the mainstream medical community. The preface outlines Dr. Brinkley's pioneering work, the rationale behind using goat glands specifically, and a brief critique of competing methods.
