Book excerpt: Excerpt from Standard History of the Medical Profession of Philadelphia The object of this work is to describe the evolution of medicine in Philadelphia, from the time of Jan Petersen, the earliest practitioner on record, to the present day. It is, as all history must necessarily be, a description of events and of institutions, and, incidentally, a biograph ical record of those who have been most prominent in both. Estimates of the character of the distinguished men whose names appear on almost every page, and comparisons of institutions, have been sedulously avoided. The facts are left to speak for themselves, the true office of history being, in the words of Lord Bacon, to represent the events themselves and to leave the observations and conclusions them upon to the liberty and faculty of every man's judgment. In dealing with such a multiplicity of names, dates and events, mis takes may have crept in, in spite of the most careful supervision; but, if this be so, it is a consolation to know that many errors of previous writers have been corrected.

Book excerpt: The success of the American Revolution produced a need for the creation of new national systems of government, finance, education, commerce--and health care. No one recognized the need for better health care more clearly than Gen. George Washington, whose order to have the Continental Army vaccinated against smallpox helped to turn the tide of battle in favor of the colonists. And so, Benjamin Rush, MD, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and 23 other physicians founded The College of Physicians of Philadelphia in 1787. This organization exerted much influence over the development of public health policies and private health practices in the new United States. More than two centuries later, it continues to serve medical professionals and the public through the resources of the world-famous Mütter Museum and Historical Medical Library as well as through many educational programs, exhibitions, conferences, and other events.
