Recenzii
In her opening paragraph, Ostherr describes Medical Visions as a book about medical visualizations and the new worlds they bring into being for both doctors and patients (p. 3). What follows is a fascinating exploration of 120 years of medical images created by parties as diverse as the healthcare industry, documentary makers and artists, which have raised questions about the identities and roles of doctors and patients, including about the doctor's gaze, whether mediated by technology or challenged by technology-driven patient empowerment such as e-patient movements.
extensive archival work and the depth of its analysis makes it essential reading for any historians with an interest in the role that visual mass media have played in the development of science, technology and medicine
