A Narrative of Medicine in America is a comprehensive account of the history of medicine in the United States, written by James Gregory Mumford. The book covers the period from the 17th century to the present day, tracing the development of medical practices, institutions, and ideas in America. It explores the major figures and movements in American medicine, including Benjamin Rush, William Osler, and the Flexner Report. The book also examines the social, cultural, and political forces that have shaped the practice of medicine in America, such as slavery, the Civil War, and the rise of the pharmaceutical industry. Through its engaging narrative style and thorough research, A Narrative of Medicine in America provides a rich and nuanced understanding of the complex history of medicine in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
