Convalescence and Invalidism in Victorian Britain: Volume II: The Opportunities of Invalidism - Nineteenth-Century Science, Technology and Medicine: Sources and Documents
By highlighting not just the afflictions, but also the opportunities, of chronic ill-health in 19th century sources, this volume reveals the iconic Victorian invalid is not the isolated shut-in we so often imagine, but a dynamic figure immersed in contemporary debates about health, climate, industrialization, city planning and globalization.
