Wellcome History magazine

The Guild of One Name Studies has just alerted me via Twitter about a magazine I have not come across before entitled Wellcome History, from the Wellcome Trust. The magazine is "for academics, students and anyone else interested in the history of medicine. Each issue, researchers in a range of fields write about their latest work."

Each issue is free and downloadable in PDF format. Amongst the articles in the current issue are one on the prevalence of physician suicide in the past and another on dietary reform in Ireland following the mid-19th century famine. Some great stuff!

To access the magazine visit www.wellcome.ac.uk/About-us/Publications/Wellcome-History/index.htm

(With thanks to @GuildOneName)
