The casualty rates of the First World War were unprecedented:
approximately 10 million combatants were wounded from Britain,
France and Germany alone. In consequence, military-medical services
expanded and the war ensured that medical professionals became
firmly embedded within the armed services. In a situation of total
war civilians on the home front came into more contact than before
with medical professionals, and even pacifists played a significant
medical role. Medicine in First World War Europe re-visits the
casualty clearing stations and the hospitals of the First World
War, and tells the stories of those who were most directly
involved: doctors, nurses, wounded men and their families. Fiona
Reid explains how military medicine interacts with the concerns,
the cultures and the behaviours of the civilian world, treating the
history of wartime military medicine as an integral part of the
wider social and cultural history of the First World War.
