Product Description

Review
'Was the twentieth century really the 'golden age' of medicine? The difficulty is that the field is too vast for any individual to answer this question - and until now, no comprehensive treatment of the era has been available. Medicine in the Twentieth Century triumphantly overcomes this dilemma. Its wide-ranging coverage by over 40 world experts is not limited to western medicine, but includes consideration of the Third World, China, and the Soviet Union. No serious student of the era can afford to be without it.' - Stephen Lock, MD, Professor of Medicine and Editor of the British Medical Journal 1975-1991.

'The 46 chapters in this book are interesting and well written....The scholarship is apparent and individual chapters combine to create a well-balanced history of twentieth century medicine.' - E-Streams



Product Description
This book contains over forty authoritiative essays, focusing on the political economy of medicine and health, understandings of the body and transformations of some of the theatres of medicine.
