The neurologists describes how Victorian physicians located in a
medical culture that privileged general knowledge over narrow
specialism came to be transformed into the specialised physicians
we now call neurologists. Relying entirely upon hitherto unseen
primary sources drawn from archives across Britain, Europe and
North America, this book analyses the emergence of neurology in the
context of the development of modern medicine in Britain. The
neurologists thus surveys the patterns of change and modernisation
that influenced British medical culture throughout the nineteenth
and twentieth centuries. In so doing, it ultimately seeks an
account of how neurological knowledge acquired such an expansive
view of human nature as to become concerned in the last decades of
the twentieth century with the human sciences, philosophy, art and
literature. -- .
