Talk: The Development of Modern Medicine

Some of the distinguished figures that lie in the Cemetery are important in European and indeed World medical and scientific history. However, the circumstances in which they worked were quite unlike our own. The development of what we now call public health and the ‘disappearance’ of childhood fevers, for example, ensure that the issues that they faced are very different from those that confront us now. A talk by Professor Sir Colin Berry.
