Many diseases discussed here--endstage renal disease, rheumatic fever, parasitic infectious diseases, coronary...

The Trial of the Assassin Guiteau: Psychiatry and the Law in the Gilded Age
ISBN: 9780226727172 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In this brilliant study, Charles Rosenberg uses the celebrated trial of Charles Guiteau, who assassinated President Garfield in 1881, to explore insanity and criminal responsibility in the Gilded Age.

Although the role of genetics in behavior was widely accepted, these psychiatrists fiercely debated whether heredity had predisposed Guiteau to assassinate Garfield. Rosenberg's account allows...

Rosenberg, one of the world's most influential historians of medicine, presents a fascinating analysis of the current tensions in American medicine. Situating these tensions within their historical and social contexts, Rosenberg investigates the fundamental characteristics of medicine: how we think about disease, how the medical profession thinks about itself and its moral and intellectual responsibilities, and what prospective patients--all of us--expect from medicine and the medical profession. He explores the nature and definition of disease and how ideas of disease... Charles E.

The Cholera Years: The United States in 1832, 1849, and 1866
ISBN: 9780226726779 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Cholera was the classic epidemic disease of the nineteenth century, as the plague had been for the fourteenth.

Carefully documented, full of descriptive detail, yet written with an urgent sense of the drama of the epidemic years, this narrative is as absorbing for general audiences as it is for the medical historian. In a new Afterword, Rosenberg discusses changes in...

The Midwives of Seventeenth-Century London
ISBN: 9780521661072 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This book is the first comprehensive and detailed study of early modern midwives in seventeenth-century London. Midwives, as a group, have been dismissed by historians as being inadequately educated and trained for the task of child delivery. The Midwives of Seventeenth-Century London rejects these claims by exploring the midwives' training and their licensing in an unofficial apprenticeship by the Church. Dr. Evenden also offers an accurate depiction of the midwives in their socioeconomic context by examining a wide range of seventeenth-century sources. This expansive study not only recovers...
