About this product

Product Information

Medicine until recently remained a history written by and for practitioners. These essays diverge from this tradition in an attempt to view medical history within the context of intellectual and social change of the last two centuries.

‘The distinguished author of this collection of scholarly essays, the President of the American Association for the History of Medicine, brings the history of medicine out of the parochial concerns of practitioners of the discipline, viewing it within ‘the rich context of the intellectual and social change of the last two centuries … Intellectually stimulating.’Journal of the Institute of Health Education, 'The distinguished author of this collection of scholarly essays, the President of the American Association for the History of Medicine, brings the history of medicine out of the parochial concerns of practitioners of the discipline, viewing it within 'the rich context of the intellectual and social change of the last two centuries ... Intellectually stimulating.'Journal of the Institute of Health Education, 'The distinguished author of this collection of scholarly essays, the President of the American Association for the History of Medicine, brings the history of medicine out of the parochial concerns of practitioners of the discipline, viewing it within 'the rich context of the intellectual and social change of the last two centuries ... Intellectually stimulating.' Journal of the Institute of Health Education, Indeed, the very question Rosenberg raises, namely, 'Why care about the history of medicine?' not only reverberates through a number of his essays, but his carefully framed analyses conclusively demonstrate the utility of a historical perspective in sifting through the various components of our contemporary health crisis. These essays demand attentive reading; one hopes they will stimulate furthyer reflection and generate additional studies. Journal of the American Medical Association|9780521395694|, 'The distinguished author of this collection of scholarly essays, the President of the American Association for the History of Medicine, brings the history of medicine out of the parochial concerns of practitioners of the discipline, viewing it within 'the rich context of the intellectual and social change of the last two centuries â€¦ Intellectually stimulating.' Journal of the Institute of Health Education, "I would suggest this work to anyone in the health profession as a much needed grounding for her or his education. We cannot know who we are without knowing where we have been, and Rosenberg provides us with some useful guideposts." The Library Letter, "In a brief review it is impossible to do justice to Rosenberg's rich writings. Suffice it to say that we are all indebted to him for exploring the history of medicine and disease in ways that blaze new paths for others to follow." Bulletin of the History of Medicine
