{"product_id":"the-transmission-of-health-practices-martin-dinges-9783515098977","title":"The Transmission of Health Practices (C. 1500 to 2000)","description":"Little attention has been paid so far to understanding the transmission of health knowledge from the different health agents to the various target groups. Knowledge areas include chronic disease, communicable disease, consumer health, environmental health, human sexuality, mental health, nutrition, physical fitness, and drug use\/abuse. Given the fact that there has already been considerable analysis of the role of physicians in the transmission of health knowledge, this volume focuses on other health agents. The health practices discussed are, among others, maternity and pregnancy, prevention of venereal diseases, dental hygiene, drug addiction and alcohol abuse, nursing skills and techniques, childcare, homosexuality and mental health. There can be no doubt that the theme of the transmission and implementation of medical knowledge holds great potential for the future research of the history of medicine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Dinges\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3515098976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783515098977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Franz Steiner Verlag Wiesbaden GmbH\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.50w x 0.60d","brand":"Martin Dinges","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454036259071,"sku":"9783515098977","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d10cadad-990c-4fda-80ba-593197f1560e.jpg?v=1777303802","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-transmission-of-health-practices-martin-dinges-9783515098977","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
