This Element examines the problem of hospital noise, a problem that
has repeatedly been discovered anew, with each new era bringing its
own efforts to control and abate unwanted sound in healthcare
settings. Why, then, has hospital noise never been resolved? This
question is at the heart of Making Noise in the Modern Hospital,
which brings together histories of the senses, space, technology,
society, medicine and architecture to understand the changing
cacophony of the late twentieth-century British hospital. This
Element is fundamentally interdisciplinary - despite being
historical, it comes up to the present day and brings in
scholarship on space, place, atmosphere and the senses that will
have relevance to scholars working outside of historical research.
The intersection between medical and sensory histories also puts
interdisciplinary research at the Element's core.
