Secondary Sources in the History of Canadian Medicine

It was with great anticipation that we, the Canadian medical history community, awaited the second volume of Chuck Roland's Secondary Sources in the History of Canadian Medicine, and we were not disappointed. The first, and greatest, improvement was the participation of Jacques Bernier of Laval University in the project. Through his additions of the French-Canadian historiography, Berniers demonstrates the depth and wealth of medical history in the francophone community. The French literature in most ways parallels English academic concerns, although, as would be expected given research initiatives over the last twenty-five years, the French historiography is stronger in terms of demography. The unified approach in this volume should encourage students with even the most basic skills in the other official language to attempt to examine their topics' literature with a truly national approach
