He offers a "post-colonial history of colonial medicine"2 (p. 9) which focuses on the role of medicine, between the periphery and the metropolis, in the formation of three fundamental categories of colonialism: race (through the racialization of certain diseases), the division between temperate and tropical zones (with the emergence of a discourse on the specificity of tropical diseases) and an imperial cartography opposing two spaces, one where the English are at home and the other where it is foreign (through the history of seasoning or acclimatization). This history proceeds by analyzing the works of certain authors (William Hillary, James Lind, Joseph Pringle, John Atkins or Edward Long), without it always being easy to know what guided these choices, and offers more perspective. broad on medicine and race, slavery, the "paradigm of putrefaction" or neo-Hippocraticism Note de contenu : Bibliogr. p. 291-317 Difference and disease : medicine, race, and the eighteenth-century British Empire [texte imprimé] / Suman Seth, Auteur . - New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2018 . - 324.p : ill ; 23.cm.
