Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sir Victor Horsley: A Study of His Life and Work He belonged to a long-lived family. He was himself strong and vigorous. He would under normal circumstances probably have lived to old age, and so long as strength of mind and body remained to him it would have been used in attempting to further the interests of the people. And he would have furthered them. He possessed in a high degree the power of influencing other men, and not only those of his own age but also the young, a much rarer gift. They felt that he was not of the past or even of the present but of the future, and that his leading was always onwards and upwards. When he joined a cause, his name at once added strength to it. It could not be merely sentimental, or wanting in justification, if it had attracted to it so manly a man and so keen an intellect. Thus he would have been a teaching and inspiring force in the country, and he has left a void which so far no one has come forward to fill.

Book Making Medicine Scientific

Download or read book Making Medicine Scientific written by Terrie M. Romano and published by Johns Hopkins University Press+ORM. This book was released on 2003-04-30 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A biography of the English physician and scientist and a history of the advancement of science in the Victorian era. In Victorian Britain, scientific medicine encompassed an array of activities, from laboratory research and the use of medical technologies through the implementation of sanitary measures that drained canals and prevented the adulteration of milk and bread. Although most practitioners supported scientific medicine, controversies arose over where decisions should be made, in the laboratory or in the clinic, and by whom—medical practitioners or research scientists. In this study, Terrie Romano uses the life and eclectic career of Sir John Burdon Sanderson (1829-1905) to explore the Victorian campaign to make medicine scientific. Sanderson, a prototypical Victorian, began his professional work as a medical practitioner and Medical Officer of Health in London, then became a pathologist and physiologist and eventually the Regius Professor of Medicine at Oxford. His career illustrates the widespread support during this era for a medicine based on science. In Making Medicine Scientific, Romano argues this support was fueled by the optimism characteristic of the Victorian age, when the application of scientific methods to a range of social problems was expected to achieve progress. Dirt and disease as well as the material culture of experimentation —from frogs to photographs—represent the tangible context in which Sanderson lived and worked. Romano’s detailed portrayal reveals a fascinating figure who embodied the untidy nature of the Victorian age’s shift from an intellectual system rooted in religion to one based on science. “A useful entry in the canon of science and public health . . . an antidote to the hubris of recent claims of accomplishment.” —Choice

  • ISBN : 9780253208309
  • Pages : 504 pages

Download or read book The Less Noble Sex written by M. Jeanne Peterson and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 1989-05-22 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physically frail, badly educated girls, brought up to lead useless lives as idle gentlewomen, married to dominant husbands, and relegated to "separate spheres" of life—these phrases have often been used to describe Victorian upper-middle-class women. M. Jeanne Peterson rejects such formulations and the received wisdom they embody in favor of a careful examination of Victorian ladies and their lives. Focusing on a network of urban professional families over three generations, this book examines the scope and quality of gentlewomen's education, their physical lives, their relationship to money, their experience of family illness and death, and their relationships to men (brothers and friends as well as fathers and husbands). Peterson also examines the prominent place of work in the lives of these "leisured" Victorian ladies, both single and married. Far from idle, the mothers, wives, and daughters of Victorian clergymen, doctors, lawyers, university dons, and others were accomplished and productive members of society who made substantial public and private contributions to virtually every sphere of Victorian life.

Download or read book Bibliotheca Osleriana written by Sir William Osler and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1969 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his tenure as the Regius Professor of Medicine at Oxford from 1905-1919, Sir William Osler amassed a considerable library on the history of medicine and science. A Canadian native, Osler had studied at McGill University and decided to leave his collection of 7,600 items to its Faculty of Medicine. A catalogue, the Bibliotheca Osleriana, was compiled - a labour of love that took ten years to complete and involved W.W. Francis, R.H. Hill, and Archibald Malloch. Osler himself laid down the broad outlines of the catalogue and wrote many of the annotations.
