{"product_id":"the-making-of-modern-hospitals-zdenk-nebenskz-9789004755055","title":"The Making of Modern Hospitals in Central Europe Between the Enlightenment and the Second World War","description":"This book fills an existing gap in the history of modern medicine by examining Central European hospitals. It does not subscribe to the \"big bang theory\" of the sudden rise of the modern hospital. Instead, it traces the (micro-)history of the municipal, university, and church hospitals, as well as the provincial institutions for the mentally ill. It raises the question of how authorities, burghers, physicians, patients, and staff dismantled caregiving premises and promoted the establishment of modern healthcare infrastructures while Central Europe was still widely associated with menacing plague and cholera epidemics.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Contributors are: Zdeněk Nebřenský, Ludwig Pelzl, Ingrid Kusniráková, Ivana Horbec, Eva Hajdinová, Daniela Tinková, Pavlína Pončíková, Janka Kovács, Martynas Jakulis, Piotr Franaszek, and Barbora Rambousková.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Zdeněk Nebřenský\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004755055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004755055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.10w x 0.81d","brand":"Zden\u0026#283;k Neb\u0026#345;enský","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997322948863,"sku":"9789004755055","price":136.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-making-of-modern-hospitals-zdenk-nebenskz-9789004755055","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
