JOHN SHAW BILLINGS BY FlBLDING H. GARRISON, M. D. John Shaw B1ll1ngs, perhaps the most versatile American physician of his time, achieved excellence and gained distinction in no less than six different fields--in military and public hygiene, in hospital construction and sanitary engineering, in vital and medical statistics, in medical bibliography and history, in the advancement of medical education and the condition of medicine in the United States, and as a civil administrator of unique abilities. Shortly after receiving his medical degree from the Medical College of Ohio (1860), Dr. Billings prepared to enter upon surgical practice in Cincinnati, where his prospects were excellent, but the outbreak of the Civil War turned his mind to the larger service of his country, and, in September, 1861, he passed his examination before the examining board for admission to the Medical Corps of the United States Army and was duly commissioned First Lieutenant and Assistant Surgeon on April 16, 1862. As an army surgeon his services were continuous and included some twenty-one months' work in hospital and a full year of roughing it in the field. He long afterwards described this experience as his postgraduate course in surgery, "with its service in camps and hospitals, with battlefields for the great clinics--a long, weary course." During the Civil War his reputation for courage and ability was of the best, and the end of the great struggle found him one of the medical inspectors of the Army of the Potomac, with a brevet of Lieutenant-Colonel "for faithful and meritorious services" (1865). Being in charge of Cliffburne Hospital, near Georgetown, July 3, 1862, assisted by fifteen Sisters of Charity, he took care of many...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We visit the ugly corrugated iron structure that Murray grandly dubbed the Scriptorium -- the Scrippy or the Shed, as locals called it -- and meet some of the legion of volunteers, from Fitzedward Hall, a bitter hermit obsessively devoted to the OED, to W.C. Minor, whose story is one of dangerous madness, ineluctable sadness, and ultimate redemption. The Meaning of Everything is a scintillating account of the creation of the greatest monument ever erected to a living language. Simon Winchester's supple, vigorous prose illuminates this dauntingly ambitious project -- a seventy-year odyssey to create the grandfather of all word-books, the world's unrivaled uber-dictionary. Book jacket."--Jacket.

This book was released on 2010-02-23 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about John Shaw Billings=s (1838-1913) role in the founding and development of two great American libraries, the Army Medical Library and the New York Public Library, to the neglect of other aspects of his career. Billings=s role as a physician was many-faceted. Beginning his medical career as an Army surgeon during the Civil War, during the next 30 years he added to his medical skills those of scientist, administrator, and planner, builder, and organizer of several important medical and public health activities and institutions. This book explores Billings as a leader of the Amedical revolution@ and the public health movement of the late 19th century. It emphasizes the part he played as a link between the growing federal government=s presence in health policy and scientific activity and the world of private medicine and local public health.
