By examining German university medicine between 1750 and 1820, this book presents a new interpretation of the emergence of modern medical science. In contrast to the standard picture of the medical profession before 1800 which treats physicians almost exclusively as healers, Thomas H. Broman argues that healing was only one aspect of a complex professional identity in 1750.
