Recenzje

This book is certainly an important addition to the historiography of cancer, as it treads the fields of both cultural history and the more traditional history of medicine and science. Indeed, this book will be an important addition to historians studying the history of cancer, but it should likewise be of interest to a variety of scholars studying broader topics in medical history, the history of science, or the cultural and social history of England.
