The Oxford Handbook of the History of Medicine celebrates the
richness and variety of medical history around the world. In recent
decades, the history of medicine has emerged as a rich and mature
sub-discipline within history, but the strength of the field has
not precluded vigorous debates about methods, themes, and sources.
Bringing together over thirty international scholars, this handbook
provides a constructive overview of the current state of these
debates, and offers new directions for future scholarship.
There are three sections: the first explores the methodological
challenges and historiographical debates generated by working in
particular historical ages; the second explores the history of
medicine in specific regions of the world and their medical
traditions, and includes discussion of the global history of
medicine'; the final section analyses, from broad chronological and
geographical perspectives, both established and emerging historical
themes and methodological debates in the history of medicine.
