This is an eight-hour course, designed as an overview of the history of the health sciences in the West. Though concentrating on medicine, it will also discuss topics in dentistry and nursing. It will identify major names, issues, discoveries, and publications, and will place them in a coherent historical context for the use of the health information professional.
