This book explores medical and health periodicals of the nineteenth
century: their contemporary significance, their readership, and how
historians have approached them as objects of study. From debates
about women doctors in lesser-known titles such as the Medical
Mirror, to the formation of professional medical communities within
French and Portuguese periodicals, the contributors to this volume
highlight the multi-faceted nature of these publications as well as
their uses to the historian. Medical periodicals - far from being
the preserve of doctors and nurses - were also read by the general
public. Thus, the contributions collected here will be of interest
not only to the historian of medicine, but also to those interested
in nineteenth-century periodical culture more broadly. The chapters
in this book were originally published as a special issue of the
journal Media History.
