Abstract

This collection of eleven essays is broadly concerned with the period 1630-1730. All of the essays with the problem of the assimilation of new ideas. As Wear indicates in the concluding chapter, it is dangerous to presuppose that the dramatic intellectual developments of the scientific revolution entailed a break with the past with respect to the theory and practice of medicine. French and Wear have brought together a strong team of contribution. Their essays maintain a uniformly high standard. This volume therefore provides useful guide to the current state of research in the field of early modern medicine. The most satisfactory coverage relates to British medicine. Although three useful papers relating to European topics are included, these are relatively unambitious in their scope. A collection of essays concerned with the theory and practice of medicine in some part of continental Europe would make an excellent companion to the present volume. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
