The Unexpurgated Case Against Women Suffrage
Sir Almroth Edward Wright (1861-1947) was a British bacteriologist and immunologist of mixed Anglo-Irish and Swedish descent. He is notable for developing a system of anti-typhoid fever inoculation, recognizing early on that antibiotics would create resistant bacteria, and being a strong advocate for preventive medicine. He graduated from Trinity College, Dublin with first class honours in modern literature, simultaneously graduating in medicine in 1893, and went on to work with the British armed forces to develop vaccines and promote immunisation. In 1902 he started a research department at St Mary's Hospital Medical School in London where he developed the system of anti-typhoid inoculation...

Nowadays the gold standard is the randomised controlled trial (RCT). But the RCT is a recent invention, and the story of how it came to dominate therapeutic evaluation from the latter half of the twentieth century involves acrimony, confrontation, and manipulation of the powerful rhetoric of ‘control’. Control and the Therapeutic Trial examines the development of the RCT from the eclectic collection of methodologies available to practitioners in the early-twentieth century. In particular, it explores the British Medical Research Co...
