Editorial Reviews for Health, Civilization and the State: A History of Public Health from Ancient to Modern Times
|
This is an overview of public health in history from the time of the Greeks up to the 20th century. We are hoping that we may be able to do an initial paperback but cannot say until we see the manuscript.

Consumer reviews:

Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent Overview Comment: The New England Review misses the point entirely. Porter's historical overview and analysis constitute an argument about the role of biopower in relation to the state. Her use of evidence to make the argument is compelling and the scope of that evidence is monumental. Her analysis of eugenics is particularly insightful. I would highly recommend this work to anyone interested in the relationship across state sovereignty, governmentality, and population.
