Book Description
Les femmes médecins sont aujourd'hui partie intégrante de la démographie médicale de la plupart de nos sociétés actuelles. En effet, au 1er janvier 2016, elles ne représentaient pas moins de 44.2% des femmes médecins, toutes spécialités confondues. Elles sont également devenues majoritaires au sein des promotions d'étudiants en médecine. Mais cela ne fut pas un droit inné et il ne fut pas aisé de l'obtenir. L'objectif principal de ce travail était de retracer l'histoire de la place des femmes dans la médecine à travers les âges en France. Un focus tout particulier est mis sur la période charnière qu'est le XIXème siècle, période de grands bouleversements sociétaux mais aussi culturels. Les objectifs secondaires étaient ensuite de comparer cette évolution avec différents pays voisins et de tenter de définir les répercussions éventuelles de la féminisation sur la pratique actuelle de la médecine. Pour cela, nous avons réalisé une revue de la littérature et synthétisé l'ensemble de ces résultats. Au total, les femmes ont toujours été présentes au cours de l'Histoire, tantôt sur le devant de la scène, tantôt persécutées et privées de leurs droits. De grandes figures ont permis l'avancée de la cause féminine dans la médecine en France au XIXème siècle. Madeleine Brès, Blanche Edward-Pillet ou bien encore Augusta Klumpke ont ouvert successivement les portes de la faculté, de l'externat puis de l'internat, permettant un exercice libre de la femme médecin. Quant aux répercussions sur la pratique médicale, ce n'est pas tant l'arrivée des femmes mais aussi une toute nouvelle vision de la profession en elle-même qui bouleverse actuellement la pratique.

Book Description
The Medical World of Early Modern France recounts the history of medicine in France between the sixteenth century and the French Revolution. Physicians, surgeons and apothecaries are centre-stage, and the study provides an overview of long-term changes in their ideas about medicine and their craft. Other denizens of the medical world - quacks, charlatans, wise women, midwives, herbalist and others - are also brought into the analysis, which is set within the broader context of social, economic, demographic and cultural change. The breadth of the chronological and analytical framework, and the depth of the archival research behind it, makes this a unique account of the evolution of medical ideas and practices in one of the major countries of early modern Europe.

Book Description
In Spanish Books in the Europe of the Enlightenment (Paris and London) Nicolás Bas examines the image of Spain in eighteenth-century Europe, and in Paris and London in particular. His material has been scoured from an exhaustive interrogation of the records of the book trade. He refers to booksellers’ catalogues, private collections, auctions, and other sources of information in order to reconstruct the country’s cultural image. Rarely have these sources been searched for Spanish books, and never have they been as exhaustively exploited as they are in Bas’ book. Both England and France were conversant with some very negative ideas about Spain. The Black Legend, dating back to the sixteenth century, condemned Spain as repressive and priest-ridden. Bas shows however, that an alternative, more sympathetic, vision ran parallel with these negative views. His bibliographical approach brings to light the Spanish books that were bought, sold and ultimately read. The impression thus obtained is likely to help us understand not only Spain’s past, but also something of its present.

Book Description
The result of years of work by scholars from all over the world, The UNESCO General History of Africa reflects how the different peoples of Africa view their civilizations and shows the historical relationships between the various parts of the continent. Historical connections with other continents demonstrate Africa's contribution to the development of human civilization. Each volume is lavishly illustrated and contains a comprehensive bibliography. This fifth volume of the acclaimed series covers the history of the continent from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the close of the eighteenth century in which two themes emerge: first, the continuing internal evolution of the states and cultures of Africa during this period second, the increasing involvement of Africa in external trade--with major but unforeseen consequences for the whole world. In North Africa, we see the Ottomans conquer Egypt. South of the Sahara, some of the larger, older states collapse, and new power bases emerge. Traditional religions continue to coexist with both Christianity (suffering setbacks) and Islam (in the ascendancy). Along the coast, particularly of West Africa, Europeans establish a trading network which, with the development of New World plantation agriculture, becomes the focus of the international slave trade. The immediate consequences of this trade for Africa are explored, and it is argued that the long-term global consequences include the foundation of the present world-economy with all its built-in inequalities.
