Epidemics in Modern Asia pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Epidemics have played a critical role in shaping modern Asia. Encompassing two centuries of Asian history, Robert Peckham explores the profound impact that infectious disease has had on societies across the region: from India to China and the Russian Far East. The book tracks the links between biology, history, and geopolitics, highlighting infectious disease's interdependencies with empire, modernization, revolution, nationalism, migration, and transnational patterns of trade. By examining the history of Asia through the lens of epidemics, Peckham vividly illustrates how society's material conditions are entangled with social and political processes, offering an entirely fresh perspective on Asia's transformation.
Robert Peckham is Associate Professor in History and Co-Director of the Centre for the Humanities and Medicine at The University of Hong Kong. His recent books include Imperial Contagions: Medicine, Hygiene, and Cultures of Planning in Asia (co-editor, 2013) and Empires of Panic: Epidemics and Colonial Anxieties (editor, 2015).
第一本正式讀完的醫學史作品,值得思考的一個是“各種現象/概念到底是什麼”,一個是“曆史過程到底是怎麼樣展開的”。
評分嘗試用mobility cities environment war globalization這幾個關鍵詞串起epidemics的曆史,文獻是很全的,觀點也可以,最難忘的可能還是state-making被看成a form of "internal colonialism"這種提法,好像也挺有道理,我現在理解的權力確實是被打散的,external和internal也沒多大差彆。

評分更像是一本教材。分彆討論mobility, cities, the environment, war, globalization這五個與傳染病有關的主題,然後每章介紹三四個個案研究。書中還有不少小貼士類型的問題討論和名詞解析。。
