Long before the world knew the name Sherlock Holmes, there was Joseph Bell.

A brilliant Scottish surgeon and lecturer, Bell astonished his students and colleagues with his uncanny ability to read people, unravel mysteries, and solve problems others couldn't. His sharp eye for detail and methodical approach to evidence made him a quiet pioneer of forensic science -- decades before the field even had a name.

It was Bell's remarkable mind and methods that inspired his young student, Arthur Conan Doyle, to create the world's most famous fictional detective. Yet while Holmes became a legend, Bell himself faded into history.

This book explores the fascinating story of Joseph Bell -- his work, his teaching, and the extraordinary ways he influenced not just medicine and law, but popular culture itself. Through his story, we meet the real man behind the legend, and discover how observation, logic, and curiosity can change the way we see the world.
