Abstract:
Lists of books about the history of medicine were compiled from book reviews
and from the
references in papers in the subject taken from the Social Sciences Citation
Index. The authors I addresses were sought from papers in this database and
thereby some of the books could be attributed to individual countries, such
as the UK and the USA, which were to be compared.
Counts of citations and of reviews to individual books both showed that the
UK was a very
strong performer in this subject, and that its standing relatively had
increased over the last few decades. This judgement reinforced the results
of interviews carried out overseas with senior historians of medicine and
gave them extra credibility.
