Dwells on the French defeat of 1870 and the socialist uprising of the Commune of Paris. By looking at the history of the body and medicine, this book considers how the French people mobilised for the war effort and how their ultimate defeat had cultural and social consequences which led to the fin-de-siecle spirit.
