Brutal Treatments: Medicine and Colonial Violence at the End of Empire - Social Histories of Medicine
Russell T. Moul
This book explores the role medical doctors played in the colonial counterinsurgency campaigns in British Kenya (1952-1960) and French Algeria (1954-1962) in the final years of empire. It not only examines how these medical professionals became embroiled in the conflict, but also how they used their knowledge to further the interests of the state. -- .
