Stanley Davidson was born in Sri Lanka and began his medical undergraduate training at Trinity College, Cambridge; this was interrupted by World War I and later resumed in Edinburgh. He was seriously wounded in battle, and the carnage and shocking waste of young life that he encountered at that time had a profound effect on his subsequent attitudes and values. mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.comIn 1930 Stanleymebooksfree.com Davidson was appointed Professor of Medicinemebooksfree.com at the University of Aberdeen, one of the first full-time Chairs of Medicine anywhere and the first in Scotland. In 1938 he took up the Chair of Medicine at Edinburgh and was to remain in this post until retirement in 1959. He was a renowned educator and a particularly gifted teacher at the bedside, where he taught that everything had to be questioned and explained. He himself gave most of the systematic lectures in Medicine, which were made available as typewritten notes that emphasised the essentials and far surpassed any textbook available at the time. Principles and Practice of Medicine was conceived in the late 1940s with its origins in those lecture notes. The first edition, published in 1952, was a masterpiece of clarity and uniformity of style. It was of modest size and price, but sufficiently comprehensive and up to date to provide students with the mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.commain elements ofmebooksfree.com sound medical practice. Although the formatmebooksfree.com and presentation have seen many changes in 22 subsequent editions, Sir Stanley’s original vision and objectives remain. More than half a century after its first publication, his book continues to inform and educate students, doctors and health professionals all over the world. mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com Davidson’s Principles and Practice of Medicine 23rd Edition Edited by mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com Stuart H Ralston MD, FRCP, FMedSci, FRSE, FFPM(Hon) Arthritis Research UK Professor of Rheumatology, University of Edinburgh; Honorary Consultant Rheumatologist, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UK Ian D Penman BSc(Hons), MD, FRCPE Consultant Gastroenterologist, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh; Honorary Senior Lecturer, University of Edinburgh, UK mebooksfree.comMark WJ Strachan mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com BSc(Hons), MD, FRCPE Consultant Endocrinologist, Metabolic Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh; Honorary Professor, University of Edinburgh, UK Richard P Hobson LLM, PhD, MRCP(UK), FRCPath Consultant Microbiologist, Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust; Honorary Senior Lecturer, University of Leeds, UK mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com Illustrations by Robert Britton Edinburgh London New York Oxford Philadelphia St Louis Sydney 2018 mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com mebooksfree.com © 2018 Elsevier Ltd.

  • Scottish Oral History Centre 2015 Report
    The Centre for the Social History of Health and Healthcare Health and health-related oral history archives. Report, 26 May 2015 Dr David Walker (SOHC) This scoping out project began on 05 January 2015 and concluded on 30 April 2015 and was undertaken by Dr David Walker (Scottish Oral History Centre, University of Strathclyde). The aim of the project was to make more accessible a rich vein of existing historical evidence on health history and health cultures in Scotland through a systematic survey of extant oral evidence across archives, libraries, museums and private collections across the country. The resulting data set may be useful to: a) Staff who may be considering research and/or research funding bids based on such oral evidence b) Students for UG and Masters dissertations and PhD theses c) Partnerships with HLF groups, museums and heritage centres The project was conducted by searching on-line catalogues, visiting archives and using email and telephone to make contact with those most likely to own or know of oral history sources. This included various academic and archive staff working within Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Glasgow Caledonian, Strathclyde, Stirling, and West of Scotland universities. Contact was also made with East Dunbartonshire Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverclyde and Culture NL (North Lanarkshire) museums as well as the Scottish Jewish Archives Centre and the National Mining Museum. Contact was also made with Lothian Health Services, Greater Glasgow and Clyde Health Board, the Royal College of Nursing, the UK Centre for the History of Nursing and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in both Glasgow and Edinburgh.

  • The Physician's Tale
    The physician’s tale Travels with the Medical Pilgrims 1928–2011 Foreword This is the third edition of accounts (Scribes’ Reports) of the Medical Pilgrims since the first volume was published in 1997 by RCP Publications. That first volume was collated by Clifford Hawkins. Sadly he died before finishing the task, which was completed by Alasdair Geddes and Robert Mahler. Subsequently, a further volume of eight Pilgrimages 1996–2003, edited by Robert Mahler was published in 2003 (see Editor’s note from that volume on page 159). Rather than producing a further update, Pilgrims agreed to a full compilation from 1928–2010 in a single volume which could then be made available on the internet and updated regularly. This contains 75 Scribe’s Reports (there were no meetings during the second World War and the first post war meeting was held at the London Hospital in 1948). The original purpose of the Medical Pilgrims was to visit centres of medical excellence and get to know leading continental physicians. Eight of the first ten Pilgrimages were to centres outside Great Britain and Ireland, seven to Continental Europe and one to America. Only three of the ten post war Pilgrimages were to Europe. However, although the pre-war pattern was temporarily re-established in the late 50s and 60s, the subsequent three decades saw 25 of 30 Pilgrimages within the UK and Ireland. From 2000, a more eclectic approach of earlier Pilgrimages has become established with an informal commitment to one in three Pilgrimages being undertaken outside the UK. The Medical Pilgrims are not an entity and there are no accounts to audit.
