Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the status of the medical profession in the state of New York in the late 19th century. The author provides a detailed historical account of how, in 1806, the profession became a corporate body. They then explore how, despite the profession's early efforts to govern its own members, it faced increasing criticisms for failing to prevent the rise of irregular practitioners. The profession then turned to the Code of Ethics of the American Medical Association as a weapon to reassert control over its members and prevent sectarian medicine from taking hold. The author argues that this action was a grave error that gave rise to even greater conflict within the medical community. The book concludes that, despite these conflicts, the medical profession in New York state continued to grow and evolve, laying the groundwork for the modern medical system we have today.
