Medical Conflicts in Early Modern London: Patronage, Physicians, and Irregular Practitioners, 1550-1640

By Frances White and Margaret Pelling

No Customer Reviews

This is the first comprehensive analysis of the best single record we have which details the many medical practitioners in early modern London. It reveals the attitudes and realities in the conflict between the College of Physicians and the practitioners, whom the College regarded as illicit or irregular. In so doing, the book challenges the assumptions we make about the dominant professional values of modern western society.
