Convalescence in the Nineteenth-Century Novel

Beschreibung

This first scholarly overview of nineteenth-century convalescent care provides vital information for scholars of Victorian novels, history of medicine, and gender & disability studies. While scholars often discuss diseases individually, post-acute convalescent care benefited a wide range of ailments - such as consumption, overwork, and debility.
