The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

"During the middle of the eighteenth century male physicians attempted to displace female midwives and clinical instruction in midwifery played a crucial role in the growth of the field. ...The 1790s marked a turning point for the growth of man-midwifery in Philadelphia and the decline in republican civic humanism. Physicians and other elite white men make self-interested decisions that were contrary to the interests of poor pregnant women. Thomas James convinced the board of Philadelphia Almshouses to allow him to utilize almshouse residents as clinical subjects for his private midwifery course. After the almshouse established a lying-in-ward, the Pennsylvania Hospital followed with its lying-in-ward.... Poor pregnant women were largely powerless once they agreed to the services provided in the institutions for the poor. As a result of racism, poor African American women had even fewer options in their parturient care and in infanticide cases. Race, gender, and class were important factors in the growth of man-midwifery."--Abstract, pages vi-vii.
