Medical Histories of Belgium

Medical histories of Belgium reshapes Belgian history of
medicine by bringing together a new generation of scholars.
Going beyond a chronological narrative, the book offers new
insights by questioning classic themes of the history of
medicine: physicians, institutions and the nation state. While
retracing specific Belgian characteristics, it also engages with
broader European developments in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries. Medical histories of Belgium will appeal to
Historians of Belgium in various subfields, especially cultural
history and political history and medical historians and medical
practitioners seeking the historical context of their activities.
