| Surgery is an ideal field for examining the processes of technological change in medicine. The contributors to this book go beyond the concept of innovation, with its focus on a single technology and its sharp dichotomy of acceptance versus rejection. Instead they explore the historical contexts of change in surgery, looking at the complex dynamics of the various treatment options available -- old and new, surgical and nonsurgical -- as well as the variable character of the new technologies themselves, thus broadening and transcending the notion of technological innovation. CONTRIBUTORS: Christopher Crenner, Sally Frampton, Delia Gavrus, David Jones, Lisa Haushofer, BethLinker, Shelley McKellar, Thomas Schlich Thomas Schlich is James McGill Professor of the History of Medicine at the Department Social Studies of Medicine at McGill University. Christopher Crenner is the Ralph Major andRobert Hudson Professor and Chair of the Department of History and Philosophy of Medicine at the University of Kansas Medical Center. |
