Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This encyclopedic volume by the author offers a historical vantage point on the evolution of physical and mental standards for naval recruits from the mid-19th century through World War I. The book draws on a range of primary sources to trace the development of medical protocols and the changing physical and mental qualities deemed necessary for naval service. The author provides a detailed analysis of the methods and standards used for recruitment, including vision, hearing, and dental checks, as well as mental health assessments. By setting these developments within the broader context of public health, social reform, and evolving scientific understanding of physical and mental health, the book sheds new light on the history of medicine and the role of the navy in shaping broader cultural understandings of health and fitness.
