Description

Explore the historical connection between physical environments and medical treatment in The Architecture and Landscape of Health. This Routledge research text examines how buildings and landscapes were designed to prevent and treat disease between 1790 and 1940. This era predates the modern reliance on pharmaceuticals and biomedicine, meaning the environment played a central role in managing the health of individuals and entire populations. Written from an architectural perspective, the book traces the development of specific therapeutic building types. It provides a detailed overview of the ideas that shaped how spaces were constructed to support wellness. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in architectural history and the evolution of how human-made environments impact public health.
