Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes infant mortality trends in 18th century London and discusses public and private efforts to alleviate the loss of lives. From the author's deep examination of parish records, contrasting parish behavior, and accounting data from the period, this book illustrates the consistent moral failings of parish officials to adequately care for the most vulnerable in society, the Foundling children. The book places the plight of 18th century infants in its social and economic context and shows that the goals of the Foundling Hospital of that era were far from being achieved. Ultimately, the author calls for a reevaluation of our present-day methods of caring for vulnerable children and presents the insights gained from this historical research as necessary to creating a better future for these children.
