Summary:
"以全球的尺度來認識醫學史,並理解危害全球健康的深層問題。現代醫學的誕生不是西方人獨自完成的。現代醫學具有濃厚的殖民性,與西方帝國主義的發展息息相關。西方向外殖民的歷史,不只依賴軍事力量,醫學伴隨其中,扮演照護殖民者生命健康的角色。透過醫學的進展,我們可以了解現代世界如何應運而生;從西方國家在美、亞、非洲的屯墾殖民史,我們可以理解他們如何藉由醫學促進經濟活動,完成文明開化的道德使命。但是,醫學只是一種工具,幫助殖民者治理他者嗎?是殖民者帶來醫學福音,幫助被殖民者脫離疾病、改善環境嗎?根據歷史考察,答案其實遠比我們想像的複雜。本書從西方將被殖民者的自然知識納入藥典,到對金雞納樹的生物探勘狂熱;從種族和氣候為基礎的疾病理論,到寄生蟲學和細菌學如何影響國際合作;從西方鄙棄殖民地的醫事人員,到殖民地傳統醫學的「被發明」,廣泛呈現醫學史的多層次與多樣性。直至二十世紀,殖民醫療措施仍延伸至全球衛生政策,掌握醫學史成為理解當代健康挑戰的敲門磚。" -- Based on seller's info.
