Learning From Empire: Medicine, Knowledge and Transfers Under Portuguese Rule
Poonam Bala
Internationalisation of medical knowledge, its circulation and implementation through colonial institutions, plays a significant role in combating diseases of public health importance. With contributions from well-established researchers, mostly based in Portugal, this volume examines the dynamics of circulation of medical knowledge and the creation of webs of empire through medical curiosities, medical and architectural knowledge, medical manuscripts, African agency, medical ideas and management of diseases, surgical and anatomical knowledge and a collective scientific enterprise in translating local to universal paradigms of practice.
