In Florence Nightingale and the Medical Men Lynn McDonald details the involvement of doctors in Nightingale’s legacy.



Trade Review

“Rich and lively, Florence Nightingale and the Medical Men is the first book to comprehensively detail Florence Nightingale’s various collaborations with doctors. Lynn McDonald reflects deeply the intimate relatedness between the rise of medical science and the refinement of what professional nursing can and should be. The book marks a welcome encapsulation of the interdisciplinary evolution of state medicine and public health.” Paul Crawford, University of Nottingham and co-author of Florence Nightingale at Home
