Descripción
Sumario:Consistent contribution to the social history of science and medicine in Brazil, which articulates recent advances in the history, philosophy and anthropology of science. It analyses, without anachronisms, the trajectory that Domingos Freire described in the effervescent world of biomedical sciences at the end of the 19th century, exposing the complex network that was then beginning to unite medical scientists. Finally, a work with the merit of showing that, in the 'race' for understanding yellow fever and finally cancelling its effects, the step of those who 'lost' also hit the ground on which the podium for the 'winners' would stand.
