A wonderfully in-depth, rich survey of his accomplishments and times,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dr. Benjamin Waterhouse: A Life in Medicine and Public Service (1754-1846) (Hardcover)
If the name Benjamin Waterhouse doesn't sound familiar immediately, it's because he's a 1754-born doctor who introduced vaccination to the U.S. and promoted the procedure around the country - yet was scorned by the Boston medical establishment. DR. BENJAMIN WATERHOUSE: A LIFE IN MEDICINE AND PUBLIC SERVICE reviews his many achievements, the controversy surrounding them, and his pioneering popularization of the study of natural history in New England. Despite his many achievements, it's surprising to note this is the first major biography covering his life and work - and provides a wonderfully in-depth, rich survey of his accomplishments and times.
