Dental Practice in Europe at the End of the 18th Century
Collected by the late Hillam (formerly of the University of Birmingham and University of Liverpool, UK), 11 papers comparatively examine the nature of specialist dental practice in France, the British Isles, the Netherlands, Hungary, and Germany at the end of the 18th century. General accounts of the social, political, and medical organization of each country are accompanied by local studies based on primary sources such as newspaper advertisements and entries in commercial directories, providing a portrait of one aspect of the emergence of specialization in therapeutic services in different political, economic, and legal settings.
