Why submit to Social History of Medicine?

It is one of the best-known scholarly journals in the field. Established in 1970 as the Bulletin for the Social History of Medicine, it publishes cutting-edge research on the history of all aspects of health, illness and medical treatment in the past, from antiquity to the present. Papers published in the journal not only seek to expand the boundaries of the discipline, but also to contribute to the central historiographic debates of our time. In the section of book reviews,­ more extensive than in any comparable journal,­ experts from across the globe examine a wide range of recent scholarly publications of interest to historians of medicine. The co-editors, members of the editorial board and contributors to Social History of Medicine are drawn from across the world, and from a range of professions and academic disciplines. Above all, the journal is committed to advancing international and interdisciplinary dialogue between different approaches to the history of medicine in society.

Please do consult the Instructions for Authors for guidance before submitting to the journal.
