Prevention, discipline, and surveillance produced results, and career opportunities for physicians and surgeons. All these developments had an impact on medicine and society, and were in turn influenced by them. The essays within examine these phenomena, exploring the imperial context, nursing and medicine in Britain, naval medicine, as well as the relationship between medicine, the state and society. British Military and Naval Medicine challenges the notion that military medicine was, in all respects, ?a good thing?. The so-called monopoly of military medicine and the authoritarian structures within the military were complex and, at times, successfully contested. Sometimes changes were imposed that cannot be characterised as improvements. British Military and Naval Medicine also points to opportunities for further research in this exciting field of study. 410 0$aClio medica (New York, N.Y.) ;$v81. 410 0$aWellcome series in the history of medicine. 606 $aMedicine, Naval$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aMedicine, Naval$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aMedicine, Military$xHistory$y16th century 615 0$aMedicine, Naval$xHistory 615 0$aMedicine, Naval$xHistory 615 0$aMedicine, Military$xHistory 676 $a616.98023 701 $aHudson$b Geoffrey L$g(Geoffrey Lewis)$01490153 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778273703321 996 $aBritish military and naval medicine, 1600-1830$93711338 997 $aUNINA
