Maori Health and Government Policy 1840-1940
Author: Derek A. DowPublisher: Victoria University Press
ISBN: 9780864733665
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
This book maps official endeavours to meet Maori health needs during the first hundred years of organised European settlement in New Zealand. Focusing on policy initiative rather than health outcomes, Maori Health and Government Policy explores four major themes: the administration and funding of Maori health,; the association between Maori and hospitals; the subsidised medical officers who provided primary health care; and infection control and the sanitary measures. Other topics include the role of missionary medicine in the 1840s and 1850s and Maori health research.

Book Description
The COVID-19 pandemic provides stark evidence of the importance of medicine on a global scale. However, revisiting the influenza pandemic of 1918 provided a perspective as we searched for a viable vaccine and instituted public health measures. This shows that medical knowledge is an accumulative process extending to the past and it is in the spirit of that legacy that this bibliography has been compiled. The book is a one-stop resource that cites literature related to the historical aspects of medicine. It also acknowledges medicine’s global reach and devotes significant effort in that respect. Although the online world seems to dominate on both a social and educational level, there is still a need for thoughtfully curated and focused reference works and this bibliography accomplishes that goal. The book has 9,000+ citations. It utilizes the WHO's International classification of Diseases for the section on diseases and disorders and the U.S. Food & Drug Administration's Product Code Classification Database for the section on medical devices, equipment, and instruments. It includes detailed subject, geographuc, and people indexes for an easy reference.

Book Description
The Plunket Society, founded in 1907, is widely regarded as New Zealand's most successful voluntary organisation. It quickly became a national icon and its praises were sung internationally. This history of this important institution reflects Western society's changing attitudes over the twentieth century to maternal and infant health and welfare, and reveals an important aspect of women's history. Various remarkable women are introduced, along with records of their struggles and their triumphs for posterity. Lavishly illustrated with 130 pictures.
