Book excerpt: George Rosen's wide-ranging account of public health's long and fascinating history is an indispensable classic. Since publication in 1958, George Rosen's classic book has been regarded as the essential international history of public health. Describing the development of public health in classical Greece, imperial Rome, England, Europe, the United States, and elsewhere, Rosen illuminates the lives and contributions of the field's great figures. He considers such community health problems as infectious disease, water supply and sewage disposal, maternal and child health, nutrition, and occupational disease and injury. And he assesses the public health landscape of health education, public health administration, epidemiological theory, communicable disease control, medical care, statistics, public policy, and medical geography. Rosen, writing in the 1950s, may have had good reason to believe that infectious diseases would soon be conquered. But as Dr. Pascal James Imperato writes in the new foreword to this edition, infectious disease remains a grave threat. Globalization, antibiotic resistance, and the emergence of new pathogens and the reemergence of old ones, have returned public health efforts to the basics: preventing and controlling chronic and communicable diseases and shoring up public health infrastructures that provide potable water, sewage disposal, sanitary environments, and safe food and drug supplies to populations around the globe. A revised introduction by Elizabeth Fee frames the book within the context of the historiography of public health past, present, and future, and an updated bibliography by Edward T. Morman includes significant books on public health history published between 1958 and 2014. For seasoned professionals as well as students, A History of Public Health is visionary and essential reading.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This political biography offers a fresh critical assessment of one of the major reformers of nineteenth-century Britain. Edwin Chadwick, lawyer, journalist, and protégé of the great Utilitarian sage Jeremy Bentham, spent the next twenty two years after Bentham's death in 1832 in government service. As a member of various royal commissions investigating such social problems as child labor in factories, the poor laws, crime, and public health, Chadwick held the post of secretary to the Poor Law Commissioners (1834-47) and served as a member of the General Board of Health (1848-54). Brundage investigates the process of government growth and modernization in Britain during these critical years. He traces the relationship between Chadwick's ideas and his policy, and the interaction of personal ambition with both. By looking in detail not only at Chadwick's ideas and their sources, but at his political strategies and maneuvers as well, the author offers a substantially new interpretation of the man and the period. The work reflects careful research in the voluminous Chadwick manuscripts at University College, the letters and papers of those connected with Chadwick, and the numerous official reports written entirely or partially by Chadwick. The result, in the words of one reviewer, is a work "several levels beyond" the two earlier biographies of Chadwick. Previous historians have seen Chadwick as a doctrinaire Benthamite, determined to apply his master's blueprints to the ramshackle institutions of British government in order to make them rational, efficient, and responsive to the problems resulting from rapid industrialization and urbanization. While not refuting this assessment, the author reveals other sides of Chadwick's character. Chadwick is shown to have been a deeply ambitious, often devious figure whose strategies frequently backfired, causing damage not only to his own career but to the reforms he espoused. Intensely jealous of rivals, resentful of superiors, and contemptuous of those who valued local self-government, Chadwick made many enemies and was denounced for his "Prussian" tendencies. The opposition to him and his policies finally led to his ouster from the General Board of Health in 1854, and he never again held public office. This full-bodied portrait of a brilliant and dedicated man will be of value to specialists and others interested in nineteenth-century British political, social, and administrative history. Brundage demonstrates that the process of governmental reform was less tidy and straightforward than is sometimes thought, and that the traditional paternalist ethos of government, directed by an aristocratic parliament, did not crumble under Chadwick's Benthamite assault on its structure and methods.

Download or read book Public Health and Politics in the Age of Reform written by David McLean and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2005-10-28 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cholera was the scourge of nineteenth century Britain, with four devastating epidemics sweeping the country from the 1830s to the 1860s. David McLean provides a detailed study of the efforts of local and national government efforts to combat the disease. Based on a unique cache of documents, McLean's account exposes the struggles between local and national government as they grappled with the enormity of the problem and the conflict between policies of laissez-faire and state intervention. Describing the efforts of public health reformer Edwin Chadwick in conjunction with among others, Prime Minister Lord Russell, Admiral Lord Cochrane and local Plymouth leader Joseph Beer, McLean brings to life a vital period in British social and political history with policy consequences that reverberate today.
