Medicine and Victory is the first comprehensive account of British military medicine in the Second World War since the publication of the official history in the early 1950s. Drawing on a wide range of official and non-official sources, the book examines medical work in all the main theatres of the war, from the front line to the base hospital. All aspects of medical work are covered, including the prevention of disease, and the disposal and treatment of casualties. Harrison argues that the medical services played a major role in the Allied victory enabling the British Army to keep a higher proportion of troops in the field than its opponents. Assuming no previous knowledge of either medical or military history, Medicine and Victory provides an accessible introduction to a vitally important, yet too often neglected aspect of the Second World War.

"Most important, there is no evidence that the good will built by U.S. doctors transferred to the South Vietnamese forces, and in fact the opposite may have been true: American programs may have emphasized the inability of the South Vietnamese government to provide basic health care to its own people. Furthermore, the programs may have demonstrated to Vietnamese civilians that foreign soldiers cared more for them than their own troops did. If that is the case, the programs actually did more harm than good in the attempt to win hearts and minds."--BOOK JACKET.

Public Health and the US Military is a cultural history of the US Army Medical Department focusing on its accomplishments and organization coincident with the creation of modern public health in the Progressive Era. A period of tremendous social change, this time bore witness to the creation of an ideology of public health that influences public policy even today. The US Army Medical Department exerted tremendous influence on the methods adopted by the nation’s leading civilian public health figures and agencies at the turn of the twentieth century. Public Health and the US Military also examines the challenges faced by military physicians struggling to win recognition and legitimacy as expert peers by other Army officers and within the civilian sphere. Following the experience of typhoid fever outbreaks in the volunteer camps during the Spanish-American War, and the success of uniformed researchers and sanitarians in confronting yellow fever and hookworm disease in Cuba and Puerto Rico, the Medical Department’s influence and reputation grew in the decades before the First World War. Under the direction of sanitary-minded medical officers, the Army Medical Department instituted critical public health reforms at home and abroad, and developed a model of sanitary tactics for wartime mobilization that would face its most critical test in 1917. The first large conceptual overview of the role of the US Army Medical Department in American society during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this book details the culture and quest for legitimacy of an institution dedicated to promoting public health and scientific medicine.

Glimpsing Modernity is a collection of papers presented at the US Army Medical Museum-sponsored conference on medical aspects of the First World War held in San Antonio, Texas, in February 2012. It captures the metamorphosis of military medicine during the war in a series of inter-related vignettes. Some of these stories provide new and insightful interpretations of known military medical themes, while others depart from these to examine less well-known, but truly important medical topics.

Excerpt from Notes on the History of Military Medicine: Expanded From Two Lectures Delivered at the Medical Field Service School, Carlisle Barracks, Pa;, June 21-22, 1921 In their present form these chapters, originally printed in The Military Surgeon during November, 1921 - August, 1922, are an expansion of two lectures delivered at the Medical Field Service School, Carlisle Barracks, Penna., on June 21-22, 1921. Designed as they are for the information and instruction of student medical officers at the Army Medical School, they cannot profess to give more than a definitive outline of the history of a great subject. But with the aid of the footnote references, derived from the matchless resources of the Surgeon General's Library, it is conceivable that the senior officer may be in position to expand the theme indefinitely for purposes of lecturing, writing or otherwise. During the World War the United States Army, particularly its Medical Corps, had an opportunity to achieve great results on a grand scale such as had never been offered it before in all its history. One effect of this great expansion, this unique opportunity to think in large terms, was to dispense, for the time being at least, with certain obsolete or obsolescent conventions of the service which had tended to narrow the viewpoint of the individual and, in extreme cases, demonstrably to engender bitter hatred against the Army in certain quarters. In other words, military discipline is now an affair of handling the individual with such impersonal equity and fairness as to make him a true disciple (discipulus) of the centric ideal, viz., the preservation of our Army for the maintenance of peace and for the defense of our common country in time of war. During the recent war the science of military morale was so effectively developed by one of our medical officers that it became possible to manufacture reliable conduct in men "like cotton cloth." The merest glance at these pages will convince any candid reader that the part played by medical personnel in the maintenance of military morale is of extraordinary moment. It was to forward this motif that this book was written, in the hope and belief that a glimpse of the "ampler aether" which is the history of his profession will convince the young medical officer that, in successful military operations of modern type, patriotism is the motor power, and military administration the mechanism by means of which great things are to be accomplished and victories won. In completing these pages the writer desires to express his sincere gratitude to Col. James Robb Church, editor of The Military Surgeon, for advice and encouragement, and to Major Arthur N. Tasker, M.C., and Mr. S. E. Womeldorph for timely assistance in the revision of copy and the correction of proofs.
