Book Description
The British Medical Journal was founded in 1840 as an independent weekly. Although it soon became the organ of the BMA, it experienced a precarious existence for many years. It was placed on a more successful basis by Ernest Hart who was editor for the last third of the 19th century. These were the BMJ's golden years, with circulation soaring, advertising revenue pouring in, and the Journal carving out an enviable reputation. Hart's successor Dawson Williams consolidated this position, but the inter-war years saw some decline in its standing, if not in its circulation. The Journal was resurrected by Hugh Clegg who was editor between 1947 and 1965. played a major role in health and medicine. It sets the BMJ in context, examining many key themes in the history of medical science and society, including public health, military medicine, quackery, sex and the birth of the NHS.

Book Description
England has traditionally been understood as a latecomer to the use of forensic medicine in death investigation, lagging nearly two-hundred years behind other European authorities. Using the coroner's inquest as a lens, this book hopes to offer a fresh perspective on the process of death investigation in medieval England. The central premise of this book is that medical practitioners did participate in death investigation – although not in every inquest, or even most, and not necessarily in those investigations where we today would deem their advice most pertinent. The medieval relationship with death and disease, in particular, shaped coroners' and their jurors' understanding of the inquest's medical needs and led them to conclusions that can only be understood in context of the medieval world's holistic approach to health and medicine. Moreover, while the English resisted Southern Europe's penchant for autopsies, at times their findings reveal a solid understanding of internal medicine. By studying cause of death in the coroners' reports, this study sheds new light on subjects such as abortion by assault, bubonic plague, cruentation, epilepsy, insanity, senescence, and unnatural death.

Book Description
Cardano's medical advice included the suggestion that "the studious man should always have at hand a clock and a mirror"--A clock to keep track of the passage of time and a mirror to observe the changing condition of his body. The remark, which recalls his astrological and autobiographical interests, is emblematic of the many connections between his medicine and his other pursuits. Cardano's philosophical eclecticism, beliefs about occult forces in nature, theories about dreams, and free transactions between academic and popularizing scientific writing also contributed to his medicine.
