Author: KYLE LOUDON, IRVINE LOUDON
Title: Medical Care and the General Practitioner, 1750-1850
Description: Clarendon Press, 1986. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 354. Unlike most histories of the medical profession between 1750 and 1850, which focus on a small handful of famous doctors and their discoveries, this book concentrates on the neglected but far larger group of rank and file practitioners: the surgeon-apothecaries of the late 18th century and the general practitioners of the early 19th century. Delving into an array of manuscript sources, Loudon examines their social and economic status, their background and training, their scientific methods and medical challenges, and their patients and pay-scales. He demonstrates that they actually faced unparalleled intraprofessional rivalry in an overcrowded profession during these years - the effects of which are still seen in the structure of Britain's medical establishment today. ISBN: 9780198227939. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
