ABOUT THIS BOOK
ABOUT THIS BOOK

“A work of great breadth, originality, and distinction.  Rarely do we see such a successful marriage between historical demography and the history of medicine.  The interconnections between population increase, migration and immigration on the one hand, and disease and the development of medicine on the other in antebellum America are brilliantly presented.”—Irvine Loudon, Bulletin of the History of Medicine
