Description

Medicine in Iran: Profession, Practice and Politics, 1800-1925 By H. Ebrahimnejad Palgrave Macmillan US, 2014, 1st edition, 268 pages, paperback. This book explores the transformation of medicine in modern Iran between the 19th and 20th centuries. It examines how local physicians adopted emerging "modern medicine" and the institutional frameworks that supported this shift. In a non-colonial context, Iranian physicians adapted Western medical practices to create a unique blend of traditional and modern approaches. The book sheds light on the process by which medicine in Iran evolved over time, influenced by local conditions and cultural factors. By tracing the development of medicine in this period, Ebrahimnejad provides valuable insights into the social and historical context of Iranian healthcare.
