| Summary | "The Dawn of Modern Medicine" by Albert H. Buck is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the significant revival and advancements in the science and practice of medicine that took place in Western Europe from the latter half of the 18th century into the early 19th century. The book likely delves into notable figures, evolving practices, and the contributions that shaped modern medicine during this pivotal period in history. The opening of the text introduces the author's intentions and the context behind his work, which serves as both a continuation and a detailed amplification of an earlier publication titled “The Growth of Medicine.” Buck discusses his challenges in sourcing reliable historical information and shares his experience working with a valuable collection of medical texts in Lexington, Kentucky. He emphasizes his commitment to portraying the lives and contributions of key medical figures while acknowledging the complexities of organizing the narrative by geographical and professional distinctions in the medical field. This preface highlights the scholarly diligence that informs the forthcoming chapters, setting the stage for a deep exploration of the evolution of medicine during a transformative era.
