Pressezitat
"Reading these pages, we realise how medical historians have often neglected to consider some important spaces where medicine was practised, focusing instead on canonical settings such as hospitals, universities and anatomical theatres. In paying attention to other spaces, all the articles add new meaning to the concept of medical practice. ... An important item for scholars interested in revitalising the field of the history of medicine." ( Metascience , March 2009)
