Abstract

Human Demography and Disease offers an interdisciplinary and integrated perspective on the relationship between historical populations and the dynamics of epidemiological processes. It brings the techniques of time-series analysis and computer matrix modelling to historical demography and geography to extract detailed information concerning the oscillations in births, deaths, migrations and epidemics from parish registers and other data series and to build mathematical models of the population cycles. This book presents a new way of studying pre-industrial communities and explores the subtle, and hitherto undetected effects of fluctuating nutritional levels on mortality patterns and the dynamics of infectious diseases. It will be of interest to researchers, teachers and students in the fields of demography, anthropology, historical geography, social history, population biology and epidemiology.

Abstract

In Mission and Method Ann La Berge shows how the French public health movement developed within the socio-political context of the Bourbon Restoration and July Monarchy, and within the context of competing ideologies of liberalism, conservatism, socialism, and statism. The dialectic between liberalism, whose leading exponent was Villerme, and statism, the approach of Parent-Duchatelet, characterized the movement and was reflected in the tension between liberal and social medicine that permeated nineteenth-century French medical discourse. Professor La Berge also challenges the prevalent notion that the British were the leaders in the nineteenth-century public health movement and set the model for similar movements elsewhere. She argues that an active and influential French public health movement antedated the British and greatly influenced British public health leaders.

Abstract

The experience of ageing and society's response to its elderly has changed throughout history. As debates on policy concerning the medical care and social welfare of the elderly become ever more pressing, many of the assumptions on which they are based are now open to question. "Life, Death and the Elderly" provides a wide-ranging historical exploration of the position of the elderly in society. By including studies on periods from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, the book provides a valuable perspective on the economic, medical, class and gender relations of the elderly, which until now have received relatively little attention from historians. In particular, the position of the elderly is linked to the fundamentally important issues of health, disability and medicalization. The old are shown as not merely dependent but as working to maintain themselves within a variety of systems of social support, whether from the family or the larger community. This book underlines the significant presence of the elderly in past societies and shows how limited is the notion that a loss of status of the elderly was concomitant with increasing industrialization.This book should be of interest to students, teachers and researchers of the history of medicine, social history, and social policy. Through an historical exploration from the Middle Ages to the 20th century, this book shows how the position of the elderly is linked to the vital themes of health, disease and survival strategies.
