Description
The magazine has existed since 1992/1994 and is devoted not only to topics related to the history of medical sciences but also to the notion of culture of medicine understood in a broader sense. In 1999, the subtitle of the magazine was changed from A study of the history of medicine to Studying the culture of medicine by the then editorial board of the magazine. It meant that from that point onward the magazine could start publishing articles that explored medical topics from the perspective of different social and humanistic sciences. The magazine’s historical character was thus enriched with new points of view and contexts. It has retained such character to this day. Newest achievements of sociology, philosophy, psychology, or medical anthropology are treated here mainly as a point of inspiration for any potential reader. The magazine’s main audience are doctors, historians, medicine historians, and young adepts of medical sciences.
