Omschrijving
Sickness in the Workhouse illuminates the role of workhouse medicine in caring for England's poor, bringing sick paupers from the margins of society and placing them centre stage.
A thoroughly researched book packed full of detail, supported by a plentiful supply of table.
A welcome addition both to medical history and to studies of the poor law during the long nineteenth century.
Sickness in the Workhouse is a highly readable book that I found absolutely fascinating. There's no doubt that offering a health service is a complex issue, for medical staff, patients and medical scientists. It seems even more relevant these days as we consider the needs and responsibilities of our National Health Service.
