Research priorities for the secondary prevention and management of acute rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease

Public Health and the U.S. Military
Although not the first study of the U.S. Army Medical Department in recent decades, this is nonetheless a superb piece of research. Its strength lies in the author's choice to focus not on combat medicine but rather on the transformative efforts of several talented surgeons general and the endeavors of their sanitarians and researchers to achieve identity and gain legitimacy from the army and the public. The path to legitimacy, while strewn with …
The Ambulance
As Ryan Bell correctly notes, the centuries-long development of the ambulance (both as form and function) has not lacked for histories that analyze either the military or more recent paramedic services. Bell deliberately limits his history to the civilian world except for “referring to the battlefield only when necessary to understand developments on the boulevard.” (2) To be sure, he gives needed coverage to Civil War ambulance services, a precu…

In Search of a Cure
In response to Roy Porter's plea some twenty years ago that scholars approach the social history of medicine from the patient's point of view, author Anne Hilde van Baal has provided an interesting study of the patients of the Ghent homeopath Gustave A. Van den Berghe. Born in 1837, Van den Berghe first attended medical studies at Louvain and Ghent before transferring to Brussels, where he graduated in 1863. Upon receiving his medical degree, he …

Patients in the History of Homeopathy (review)

With minor exceptions, all the papers were presented at the conference and were later revised
Biomedicine and Alternative Healing Systems in America
This look into the relationship between organized biomedicine and the nation's competing alternative medical systems is coupled with some very obvious political overtones that point ultimately to the demand for a universal health-care system "that incorporates alternative therapies and that treats health care as a right rather than a privilege" (p. 189). In reaching this conclusion, Baer has brought together nearly twenty years of interdisciplina…

Representative of that effort is this set of papers on alternative therapies delivered at a 1998 seminar in Sweden organized by the Department of Health and Society at Linköping University, in cooperation with …

The Species Problem
The species problem and its implications in the origin of man controversy had grown in importance in prewar America owing largely to the question of slavery. Implicit in the problem was the position of the so-called inferior races in society. The monogenists, despite their emphasis on environmentalism, were no more favorable to the Negro, except in their remote theoretical stance. The Civil War-not Darwin-brought the controversy to an end in Amer…

Race and the Concept of Progress in Nineteenth Century American Ethnology
While nineteenth century American ethnologists relied on the word "evolution" more than the word "progress" to define their theory of culture, their theory of evolution nonetheless implied a teleological projection that was no more than a paeon for Anglo-Saxon race achievement. Believing that failures in earlier stages of evolution had limited brain size and quality of the "inferior races," they suggested that, for all practical purposes, the Cau…
