Book Synopsis Building Schools, Making Doctors by : Katherine L. Carroll
Download or read book Building Schools, Making Doctors written by Katherine L. Carroll and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late nineteenth century, medical educators intent on transforming American physicians into scientifically trained, elite professionals recognized the value of medical school design for their reform efforts. Between 1893 and 1940, nearly every medical college in the country rebuilt or substantially renovated its facility. In Building Schools, Making Doctors, Katherine Carroll reveals how the schools constructed during this fifty-year period did more than passively house a remodeled system of medical training; they actively participated in defining and promoting an innovative pedagogy, modern science, and the new physician. Interdisciplinary and wide ranging, her study moves architecture from the periphery of medical education to the center, uncovering a network of medical educators, architects, and philanthropists who believed that the educational environment itself shaped how students learned and the type of physicians they became. Carroll offers the first comprehensive study of the science and pedagogy formulated by the buildings, the influence of the schools’ donors and architects, the impact of the structures on the urban landscape and the local community, and the facilities’ privileging of white men within the medical profession during this formative period for physicians and medical schools.
Book Synopsis Doctoring the South by : Steven M. Stowe
Download or read book Doctoring the South written by Steven M. Stowe and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2011-01-20 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a new perspective on medical progress in the nineteenth century, Steven M. Stowe provides an in-depth study of the midcentury culture of everyday medicine in the South. Reading deeply in the personal letters, daybooks, diaries, bedside notes, and published writings of doctors, Stowe illuminates an entire world of sickness and remedy, suffering and hope, and the deep ties between medicine and regional culture. In a distinct American region where climate, race and slavery, and assumptions about "southernness" profoundly shaped illness and healing in the lives of ordinary people, Stowe argues that southern doctors inhabited a world of skills, medicines, and ideas about sickness that allowed them to play moral, as well as practical, roles in their communities. Looking closely at medical education, bedside encounters, and medicine's larger social aims, he describes a "country orthodoxy" of local, social medical practice that highly valued the "art" of medicine. While not modern in the sense of laboratory science a century later, this country orthodoxy was in its own way modern, Stowe argues, providing a style of caregiving deeply rooted in individual experience, moral values, and a consciousness of place and time.

Book Synopsis Becoming a Physician by : Thomas Neville Bonner
Download or read book Becoming a Physician written by Thomas Neville Bonner and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the social, intellectual, and political context in which medical education took place, Thomas Neville Bonner offers a detailed analysis of transformations in medical instruction in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and the United States between the Enlightenment and World War II. From a unique comparative perspective, this study considers how divergent approaches to medical instruction in these countries mirrored as well as impacted their particular cultural contexts. The book opens with an examination of key developments in medical education during the late eighteenth century and continues by tracing the evolution of clinical teaching practices in the early 1800s. It then charts the rise of laboratory-based teaching in the nineteenth century and the progression toward the establishment of university standards for medical education during the early twentieth century. Throughout, the author identifies changes in medical student populations and student life, including the opportunities available for women and minorities.

Book Synopsis The History of Medical Education in Britain by :
Download or read book The History of Medical Education in Britain written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professional education forms a key element in the transmission of medical learning and skills, in occupational solidarity and in creating and recreating the very image of the practitioner. Yet the history of British medical education has hitherto been surprisingly neglected. Building upon papers contributed to two conferences on the history of medical education in the early 1990s, this volume presents new research and original synthesis on key aspects of medical instruction, theoretical and practical, from early medieval times into the present century. Academic and practical aspects are equally examined, and balanced attention is given to different sites of instruction, be it the university or the hospital. The crucial role of education in medical qualifications and professional licensing is also examined as is the part it has played in the regulation of the entry of women to the profession. Contributors are Juanita Burnby, W.F. Bynum, Laurence M. Geary, Faye Getz, Johanna Geyer-Kordesch, S.W.F. Holloway, Stephen Jacyna, Peter Murray Jones, Helen King, Susan C. Lawrence, Irvine Loudon, Margaret Pelling, Godelieve Van Heteren, and John Harley Warner.
Book Synopsis The Education of Early Nineteenth Century American Physicians by : Eric Paul Matthews
Download or read book The Education of Early Nineteenth Century American Physicians written by Eric Paul Matthews and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern concern with Smallpox bio-weapons, coupled with the possibility of their use as an instrument of terror and unconventional warfare, brings to the forefront the realistic concern that there is no wide-spread extant immunity against the Variola virus. Decades of immunization and the effective eradication of the disease in the 20 th century have left the population without adequate protection against a future outbreak. This is the same state the American Plains Indians were in during the 19 th century. During the first half of the 19th century, Anglo-European interaction with the central plains Indians of North America brought about catastrophic results for the semi-sedentary Upper Missouri River tribes, particularly the Mandan Indians. This work uses the background of the smallpox epidemic which originated in 1837 aboard the American Fur Company steamer St. Peters to explore the method of American medical education during the early 19th century, and early 19th century methods of intervention relevant to the smallpox virus. This examination may aid future care-givers in dealing with the looming threat of a smallpox bio-weapon.
Book Synopsis The Therapeutic Perspective by : John Harley Warner
Download or read book The Therapeutic Perspective written by John Harley Warner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new paperback edition makes available John Harley Warner's highly influential, revisionary history of nineteenth-century American medicine. Deftly integrating social and intellectual perspectives, Warner explores a crucial shift in medical history, when physicians no longer took for granted such established therapies as bloodletting, alcohol, and opium and began to question the sources and character of their therapeutic knowledge. He examines what this transformation meant in terms of patient care and assesses the impact of clinical research, educational reform, unorthodox medical movements, newly imported European method, and the products of laboratory science on medical ideology and action. Originally published in 1997. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

Book Synopsis Body Snatching by : Suzanne M. Shultz
Download or read book Body Snatching written by Suzanne M. Shultz and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2005-02-24 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Also called "resurrectionists," body snatchers, were careful not to take anything from the grave but the body--stealing only the corpse was not considered a felony since the courts had already said that a dead body had no owner. ("Burking"--i.e., murder--was the alternative method of supplying "stiffs" to medical schools; it is covered here as well). This book recounts the practice of grave robbing for the medical education of American medical students and physicians during the late 1700s and 1800s in the US, why body snatching came about and how disinterment was done, and presents information on: efforts to prevent the practice, a group of professional grave robbers, and the European experience.

Book Synopsis Science and the Practice of Medicine in the Nineteenth Century by : W. F. Bynum
Download or read book Science and the Practice of Medicine in the Nineteenth Century written by W. F. Bynum and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-05-27 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to the nineteenth century, the practice of medicine in the Western world was as much art as science. But, argues W. F. Bynum, 'modern' medicine as practiced today is built upon foundations that were firmly established between 1800 and the beginning of World War I. He demonstrates this in terms of concepts, institutions, and professional structures that evolved during this crucial period, applying both a more traditional intellectual approach to the subject and the newer social perspectives developed by recent historians of science and medicine. In a wide-ranging survey, Bynum examines the parallel development of biomedical sciences such as physiology, pathology, bacteriology, and immunology, and of clinical practice and preventive medicine in nineteenth-century Europe and North America. Focusing on medicine in the hospitals, the community, and the laboratory, Bynum contends that the impact of science was more striking on the public face of medicine and the diagnostic skills of doctors than it was on their actual therapeutic capacities.
