Riassunto

This text, the second volume in a two-volume survey of pre-20th century modern medical ethics, presents fresh historical research and philosophical analyses of the evolution of medical ethics in 19th-century America and the development of a different, but parallel, tradition of medical jurisprudence in 19th-century Britain. These original papers are supplemented by reprints of: the first American Code of medical ethics, the Boston Medical Police of 1808; and an unabridged version of the American Medical Association's 1847 Code of Ethics; and the second (1886) edition of Jukes Styrap's Code of Ethics - a Code which, although officially rejected by the British Medical Association, nonetheless defined the "done thing" for British practitioners in the last decades of the 19th century.
