Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Years of Medical Progress, 1873-1922 I feel bound to enter a word of protest against men who have lost their didactic powers continuing to hold professorial posts in our medical schools. During my time at Edinburgh there were two of the professors who should have resigned some years previously, and whose teaching was a farce. The student, however, was compelled, by the regulations of the college, to attend the classes of these professors - an absolute waste of time! An excellent Bibliography of Medicine is contained in Garrison's History of Medicine, a model of literary workmanship, from which I have Obtained much information. The other standard works and periodicals referred to are too numerous to mention. If readers will draw my attention to errors of omission Or of commission I shall be very grateful. I tender my most grateful thanks to all those confreres, both in this country and abroad, who have so readily sent me their portraits for publication; to Dr. Butt of Chester for the portrait of his brother-in-law, the late Dr. J. Everett Dutton; to Messrs. J. M. Dent and co. For their courtesy in permitting the reproduction of Professor Bateson's photograph; and to Mr. Wickens Of Bangor for permission to print the portrait of Dr. Griffith Evans.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Medicine in New York, Three Centuries of Medical Progress, Vol. 2 In Spite of his intimate friendship with Franklin, Governor Col den, probably from his Official connections, continued to be in tensely loyal to Great Britain when the troubles with the Mother Country began. He insisted that the stamped paper made com pulsory by the famous stmp Act must be used, but soon found that the people of the colony were against him. Colden was now a very Old man, past eighty-seven, but he still had pluck, so he re tired to Fort George with a garrison of marines. It is said that he ordered the marines to fire on the populace when they were sedi tious, but the marines refused. In the disturbances which fol lowed, Colden's official carriage as lieutenant-governor was seized and burned, along with an effigy of himself, and it is said also of the devil. Finding life too uncomfortable under the circumstances in New York, Colden retired at the beginning of the Revolution to a large estate which he owned near Newburgh, called Coldenham. Here he occupied himself entirely with his favorite sciences, espe cially botany, electricity and mathematics. His home had been the meeting place for the learned men of the colonies, and his high est pleasure in life had been to entertain them, but the disturbance due to the Revolutionary War interfered with this, and the follow ing year, on September 28th, 1776, only a few months after the Declaration of Independence, the physician, scientist, governor, passed away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Sandra Barney examines the transformation of medical care in Central Appalachia during the Progressive Era and analyzes the influence of women volunteers in promoting the acceptance of professional medicine in the region. By highlighting the critical role played by nurses, clubwomen, ladies' auxiliaries, and other female constituencies in bringing modern medicine to the mountains, she fills a significant gap in gender and regional history. Barney explores both the differences that divided women in the reform effort and the common ground that connected them to one another and to the male physicians who profited from their voluntary activity. Held together at first by a shared goal of improving the public welfare, the coalition between women volunteers and medical professionals began to fracture when the reform agendas of women's groups challenged physicians' sovereignty over the form of health care delivery. By examining the professionalization of male medical practitioners, the gendered nature of the campaign to promote their authority, and their displacement of community healers, especially female midwives, Barney uncovers some of the tensions that evolved within Appalachian society as the region was fundamentally reshaped during the era of industrial development.
