Charitable Knowledge explores the formation of the teaching hospital in eighteenth-century London. The metropolis lacked a university until the nineteenth century, so the seven major voluntary hospitals were crucial sites for educating surgeons and visiting physicians. Lawrence explains how charity patients became teaching objects, and how hospitals became medical schools.
