Description

A Social History of Medicine traces the development of medical practice from the Industrial Revolution through the twentieth century, drawing on a wide range of source material to chart the changing relationship between patients and practitioners over this transformative period. This scholarly work explores the impact of institutional care, government intervention, and scientific discovery on healthcare delivery in England. By focusing on provincial areas and using local sources, the book illuminates the extent to which medical assistance was actually available to patients during this era, offering insights into both institutional frameworks and the lived experiences of contemporary medical practitioners and their communities across England.

Key Features

A Social History of Medicine examines healthcare development across two centuries, from the Industrial Revolution to 1950, using primary source material.

The book analyses the relationship between patients and practitioners, revealing how medical practice evolved through institutional care and government intervention.

Provincial sources and local archives form the basis of this history, providing detailed evidence of medical assistance availability in regions beyond London.

The work explores scientific discovery's role in shaping medical practice and public health outcomes during England's transformative nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Published by Routledge, this academic text introduces contemporary medical practitioners and their approaches to healing and disease management across the period.
