Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from George Miller Sternberg: A Biography As Surgeon - General of the Army (1893 Sternberg created the Army Medical School, organized the Army Nurse Corps and the Dental Corps, established the Tuberculosis Hos pital at Fort Bayard, and many general hospitals during the spanish-american War. His own early difficulties in acquir ing the knowledge for which he thirsted led him to the liberal minded policy of encouraging medical officers to engage in scientific research in laboratories established by him in the larger post hospitals. Similar aims resulted in the establish ment by him of the Typhoid Fever Board (majors Reed, Vaughan and Shakespeare), which gave us a new point of view for the prevention of this disease; and of the Yellow Fever Commission, headed by Major Walter Reed, who, with his associates, discovered that yellow fever is transmitted by a particular mosquito. The enormous gain to medicine and public hygiene through these discoveries is well known. Finally, after his retirement from active duty in the Army, General Sternberg devoted the evening of his life to social welfare activities in Washington, of which his work on sanitary improvement of habitations and the care of the tuberculous was perhaps the most important. He was highly honored in his lifetime, a president of the American Medical Association and of many other important scientific societies. The present volume has been revised for the press by Lieut. Co]. F. H. Garrison and Dr. Frank J. Stockman, both of the surgeon-general's Library. Written as it is by a lady of the Army, about one of the most eminent of our Medical Corps, I cordially commend the book to the medical profession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Health and the US Military is a cultural history of the US Army Medical Department focusing on its accomplishments and organization coincident with the creation of modern public health in the Progressive Era. A period of tremendous social change, this time bore witness to the creation of an ideology of public health that influences public policy even today. The US Army Medical Department exerted tremendous influence on the methods adopted by the nation’s leading civilian public health figures and agencies at the turn of the twentieth century. Public Health and the US Military also examines the challenges faced by military physicians struggling to win recognition and legitimacy as expert peers by other Army officers and within the civilian sphere. Following the experience of typhoid fever outbreaks in the volunteer camps during the Spanish-American War, and the success of uniformed researchers and sanitarians in confronting yellow fever and hookworm disease in Cuba and Puerto Rico, the Medical Department’s influence and reputation grew in the decades before the First World War. Under the direction of sanitary-minded medical officers, the Army Medical Department instituted critical public health reforms at home and abroad, and developed a model of sanitary tactics for wartime mobilization that would face its most critical test in 1917. The first large conceptual overview of the role of the US Army Medical Department in American society during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this book details the culture and quest for legitimacy of an institution dedicated to promoting public health and scientific medicine.
