British history. Focusing on Scotland, it draws together the three main strands of Professor Crowther's academic research - welfare, medicine and legal history - and reflects the range of her historical scholarship. Based on original research, the essays in this book examine important developments in key Scottish institutions, question enduring myths about the nature of Scottish legal and medical practice, and explore the intersections between medicine, the law and public policy. |
