Description

A key volume on the history of medicine and its social relations, this title examines how modernisation of healthcare resulted in a wide range of social arrangements in public and private.

Covering a broad chronological thematic or global scope, ranging from children's health, mental disorders and the influence of pharmaceutical companies to the systems of twentieth century healthcare in Britain, Europe and South Africa, chapters discuss key themes such as how changing economies have influenced configurations of healthcare and how access has varied according to lifecycle, ethnicity and wealth. This title is essential reading for any student interested in the history of medicine.
