    Covid-19 disrupted the fabric of academic collaboration. Scholars cancelled or delayed in-person talks, seminars, and conferences in an effort to reduce transmission of the virus. In many instances, the academic profession turned to various online platforms to share ideas. What are the possible long-term consequences of this development?

    This article examines the Rockefeller Foundation's (RF) engagement with the British National Health Service (NHS) between 1945 and 1960.

    This essay recovers organized opposition to the National Health Service (NHS) by considering the Fellowship for Freedom in Medicine (FFM), a conservative organization of doctors who challenged the 'Sacred Cow' of nationalized healthcare in the 1950s and 1960s. While there has been little interest in anti-NHS politics because of shortcomings in the institution's historiography, this study suggests ways a new history of the service can be written. …

  • Nicklaus Thomas-Symonds, Nye

    Andrew SeatonARTICLESocial History of Medicine2015

    As the National Health Service (NHS) enters another period of financial anxiety, Nicklaus Thomas-Symonds offers a timely biography of its post-war architect, Aneurin Bevan. Far more concise than Michael Foot's weighty two-volume biography, this is the most accessible account yet of the former Labour Minister of Health's turbulent career.1 Thomas-Symonds positions himself between the ‘Nye-worship’ that Foot exemplified and John Campbell's overly c…
