First Edition in English of Darstellungen und An…sichten zur Vergleichung der Medicin in Frankreich, England und Deutschland, nach einer Reise in diesen Landern im Jahre 1835. The author was a surgeon in Hanover. Translated by Edward G. Davis. "When in 1857 the British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review "endeavoured to give an exposition generally of the principles of Medical Geography" it discussed Adolf Muhty's Die geographischen Verhältnisse der Krankheiten oder Grundzuge der Noso-Geographie (The Geographical Relations of Diseases or, Outlines of Noso-Geography) (1856).) When in 1869 the Parisian physician Edouard Carriere (d.1883), in his programmatic booklet Fondements et organisation de la climatologie medicale (Foundations and Organization of Medical Climatology) proposed the establishment of an international society for medical climatology, he accorded the right of priority for founding such a society to Germany, because of three of its native sons: Alexander von Humboldt (1769-1859), Heinrich Berghaus (1797-1884) and Adolf Muhry. And when in 1892 the third edition of Berghauss Physikalischer Atlas appeared, it singled out Friedrich Schnurrer (1784-1833) and Muhry as sources for its updated map of the global distribution of human diseases." Alexander von Humboldt was and is widely known; Berghaus and Schnurrer are discussed elsewhere in this volume (Chapters 10 and 11); but who was Muhry? For all his nineteenth-century prominence as a medical geographer, today he is an obscure figure, rarely ever referred to. / In this chapter I introduce Muhry by providing a brief exposition of his medical geography in the context of his life and times. He is interpreted as the most significant medical geographer in the Humboldtian tradition of the mid-nineteenth century . . ." â" Rupke. CONTENTS: Preface -- Topography of Paris and London -- Doctrine of inflammation in France and England -- French Medicine -- English Medicine -- French Surgery and Ophthalmology -- English Surgery and Ophthalmology -- Changes in the condition of medicine in France -- Condition of medicine in England, and its reform -- A glance at Germany -- Some farther comparisons.
