In this concisely written and well-organized volume, Ming-Cheng M. Lo sets out to excavate the historical genesis and changing identities of Taiwanese medical professionals under Japanese colonial rule. Using archival materials as well as interviews and published oral histories, Lo crafts a finely tuned narrative history of Taiwanese doctors throughout the entire colonial period from 1895 through 1945. The author also contributes new theoretical insights into the historical sociology of the professions
