Blockley Days: Memories And Impressions Of A Resident Physician, 1883-1884 is a book written by Arthur Ames Bliss and published in 1916. The book is a memoir of Bliss's time as a resident physician at the Philadelphia General Hospital, also known as Blockley Hospital, during the years 1883-1884. Through his personal experiences and observations, Bliss provides a detailed account of the daily life and medical practices at the hospital during the late 19th century. He describes the challenges faced by the hospital staff in treating a diverse range of patients, including those suffering from infectious diseases, mental illness, and injuries resulting from industrial accidents. Bliss also provides insight into the social and cultural context of the time, including the impact of poverty and social inequality on the health of patients, as well as the attitudes and beliefs of medical professionals towards their work and their patients. Overall, Blockley Days offers a unique and informative perspective on the history of medicine and healthcare in the United States during the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
