Reviews
Institutional histories are often boring [but] Elizabeth Fee's book is neither tedious nor merely fashioned for in-house consumption. In fact, developments at the Hopkins School of Hygiene are merely the platform from which the author launches into a broad investigation of early twentieth-century public health ideology in America.
... remarkable...
Fee’s book, originally published in 1987 but reissued in 2016... has become one of the staples to which public health historians turn.
