Its foundations were laid during an Anglo-Dutch-German Wellcome Workshop on the History of Medi- cine which took place in Maastricht, Th e Netherlands, from 23 to 25 June 2005. Th e workshop was organized by Harold Cook and Anne Hardy (then Wellcome Trust Centre for the History of Medicine at UCL), Hilary Marland (University of Warwick), Robert Jütte and Martin Dinges (Robert Bosch Foundation, Stutt- gart) and Frank Huisman and Harry Oosterhuis (Maastricht University). It was supported by the Wellcome Trust, the Robert Bosch Stift ung, the Netherlands Organisation for Scientifi c Research (NWO), the Huizinga Institute and the Faculty of Arts and Culture of Maastricht University. Almost half of the contributions to this volume were commissioned aft er the workshop and were meant to introduce a new approach to the topic and a new structure to the book. Th e text of Anne Hardy’s contribution is taken from the second chapter of her forthcoming book Salmonella, Infections, Networks of Knowledge, and Public Health in Britain, 1880–1975, the argument being modifi ed for the theme of the current volume. Many people helped to shape this volume. We are indebted to Logie Barrow, Harold Cook, Roger Cooter, Martin Dinges, Dagmar Ellerbrock, Sylvelyn Hähner-Rombach, Th orsten Halling, Rob- ert Jütte, Christopher Lawrence, Hilary Marland, Th orsten Noack, Hasso Spode, Claudia Stein, Gunnar Stollberg, Mathew Th omson, and Jörg Vögele. Th e Stud- ies for the Society for the Social History of Medicine series editor at Pickering & Chatto, David Cantor, has been very stimulating from the start, and we would like to thank him for his encouragement. Above all, we are grateful to the contributors to this volume for their continuing intellectual engagement, their hard work and their patience; and to Anne Hardy for her meticulous correction of the English. – ix –
