ISBN: 9780226727172 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 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. Rosenberg masterfully reconstructs the courtroom battle waged by twenty-four expert witnesses who represented the two major schools of psychiatric thought of the generation immediately preceding Freud. 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...

ISBN: 9780813517575 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "In some ways disease does not exist until we have agreed that it does, by perceiving, naming, and responding to it, " writes Charles E. Rosenberg in his introduction to this stimulating set of essays. Disease is both a biological event and a social phenomenon.

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

Medicine has always had its historians; but until recently it was a history written by and for practitioners.

The Cholera Years: The United States in 1832, 1849, and 1866
ISBN: 9780226726779 / Angielski / Miękka / 1987 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Cholera was the classic epidemic disease of the nineteenth century, as the plague had been for the fourteenth. Its defeat was a reflection not only of progress in medical knowledge but of enduring changes in American social thought. Rosenberg has focused his study on New York City, the most highly developed center of this new society. 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...

Rosenberg, one of the world's most influential historians of medicine, presents a fascinating analysis of the current tensions in American medicine.

The Midwives of Seventeenth-Century London
ISBN: 9780521661072 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. 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...

Patients, Power and the Poor in Eighteenth-Century Bristol
ISBN: 9780521526937 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) While much is known about the leaders of the medical profession in the eighteenth century, little has been written about rank-and-file practitioners--the apothecaries, blood-letters, and herb-women--or about the patients they treated. Focusing on Bristol, the book examines how the poor gradually lost medical autonomy and authority over their bodies, as the city's hospital was transformed from a charity to a medical workplace by the contingencies of urban apprenticeship and changes in the structure of the city's medical occupations. As hospitals assumed the role of training surgeons and...
