Beskrivelse

Studies how doctors responded to deep-seated fears about nervous degeneracy and population decline in France between 1750 and 1850. This book uncovers a medical debate in which four generations of hygiene activists used biomedical science to transform the self, sexuality and community in order to regenerate a sick and decaying nation.
