Unlike most histories of the medical profession between 1750 and 1850, which focus on a small handful of famous doctors and their discoveries, this book concentrates on the neglected but far larger group of rank and file practitioners: the surgeon-apothecaries of the late 18th century and the general practitioners of the early 19th century. Delving into an array of manuscript sources, Loudon examines their social and economic status, their background and training, their scientific methods and medical challenges, and their patients and pay-scales. He demonstrates that they actually faced unparalleled intraprofessional rivalry in an overcrowded profession during these years -- the effects of which are still seen in the structure of Britain's medical establishment today.

"Medical Care and the General Practitioner 1750-1850" gives the history of general practice during its formative years. It is a book about an insufficiently known career, which would make good reading for all doctors, and could be read in conjunction with "Death in Childbirth", the history of obstetrics by the same author. A follow-up volume on the history of general practice from 1850-1950 - or until the present day, would be in order.
