1986PW1160Ithaca NY:: Cornell University Press. 1986. 1986. 8vo. 310 2 pp. Figs. index. Light blue gilt-stamped cloth dust jacket. Very good . ISBN: 080141850x "This book is not the first to describe the failure of the College of Physicians to regulate and supervise medical practice in seventeenth-century London but it is the first fully to explain how and why that failure occurred. Like George Clark the college's most recent historian Harold J. Cook draws much of his material from the college's rich archives but he analyzes the quantity and quality of its regulatory activity in much greater detail. He is also better acquainted with the historical context within which the physicians operated. He has read most of the relevant pamphlet literature and he has a firm understanding of the character of competing sources of medical aid. The result is a book of wide interest: an important contribution to medical history that also illuminates the political and intellectual history of seventeenth-century England." – The American Historical Review Cornell University Press. 1986. hardcover books
