Cover has some wear and soiling. Simon Flexner, M.D. ForMemRS (March 25, 1863 in Louisville, Kentucky - May 2, 1946) was a physician, scientist…, administrator, and professor of experimental pathology at the University of Pennsylvania (1899-1903). He served as the first director of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research (1901-1935) and a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation. He was also a friend and adviser to John D. Rockefeller Jr. Among Flexner's most important achievements are studies into poliomyelitis and the development of serum treatment for meningitis. His son James Thomas Flexner became a prolific writer; one of his works was an extensive biography of George Washington. During American medicine's "Heroic Age," when medical training and practice underwent revolutionary change, William Henry Welch emerged as a singular, revolutionary hero. The first full-time faculty member at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, he became the undisputed leader of American scientific medicine and the greatest shaping force in American medical education. He won international fame as America's preeminent authority on medical issues. Welch founded the country's first pathological laboratory at the Bellevue Hospital Medical College. His "radical" innovations at the new Johns Hopkins School of Medicine became the standard in American medical education: high entrance requirements, laboratory instruction, emphasis on science, and fostering of research. His vision had shaped a variety of other important institutions, including the Rockefeller Institute, the Association of American Physicians, and the country's first school of public health and hygiene, established at Johns Hopkins. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.
