内容説明
Medicine and Society in Early Modern Europe, in the highly successful series of New Approaches, offers undergraduate students a concise introduction to a subject rich in historical excitement and interest. Bringing together the best and most innovative recent research, Mary Lindemann examines medicine from a social and cultural perspective, rather than a narrowly scientific one. Drawing on medical anthropology, sociology and ethics as well as cultural and social history, she focuses on the experience of illness and on patients and folk healers as much as on the rise of medical science, doctors and hospitals. Mary Lindemann is a distinguished scholar in the history of medicine and writes with exceptional clarity on this fascinating subject; her book will be essential reading for all students of the history of medicine, and provide invaluable context for historians of early modern Europe in general.
