Description

A Cultural History of Medicine presents an authoritative survey from ancient times to the present. The set of six volumes covers over 2500 years of history, charting the changes in medical experience, knowledge and practices throughout history. This volume, A Cultural History of Medicine in the Modern Age, explores medicine as a cultural practice from 1920 to the present day. As with all the volumes in the illustrated Cultural History of Medicine set, this volume presents essays on the environment, food, war, animals, objects, experiences, authority and the mind. A Cultural History of Medicine in the Modern Age is the most authoritative and comprehensive survey available on medicine in the modern period.
