xii, 146 pp. Original cloth. Slight dampstaining to very top of upper blank margin of some pages. Dust jacket spine slightly sunned. Else Very Good, in dust jacket. 'This book belongs to the category describing itself as 'thought provoking'. For once this claim is well grounded. Quite explicitly, the author sets out to apply the methods of Foucault to the analysis of conceptual change within medicine in the present century. Although not a slavish imitation of Foucault, the hand and name of the master are never far from sight. But the book is also sufficiently original and scholarly to be refreshing and challenging to both sociologists and historians' (Charles Webster, Med Hist. 1984 July; 28(3): 335 336).
