This book illuminates how crucial transformations in medical
politics and organisation were linked to wider changes in society,
economy and ideology. Paying particular attention to developments
in medical welfare for physically handicapped children, wounded
soldiers and injured workers, this extensively documented study
challenges conventional accounts of medical specialisation;
provides Anglo-American comparisons; and demonstrates the
importance for medical modernity of changing interactions between
philanthropy, war, labour, capital and the state.
