The Renaissance Hospital: Healing the Body and Healing the Soul
John Henderson
Provides a recreation of the enormous barn-like wards exploring the lives of those who received and those who administered treatment there. This book draws on a range of visual and documentary evidence, and overturns the popular view of the pre-industrial hospital as a hellish destination for the dying poor.
