Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 August 2011
The chapters in this volume are, with one exception, revised versions of papers delivered to the Past and Present conference on ‘Epidemics and Ideas’ held in Exeter College, Oxford, on 21 and 22 September 1989. The exception, chapter 7 by Richard Evans, was originally published in Past and Present, no. 120 (August 1988). The Past and Present Society is grateful to the Wellcome Trust for a grant towards the expenses of the conference. The Editors also wish to thank those who gave papers on that occasion, and especially Virginia Berridge, Lawrence Conrad and Peregrine Horden who stepped in to fill gaps in the programme at a late stage. We owe a considerable debt finally to all those who commented and contributed to discussion at the various sessions, and who have generously allowed us to draw on their remarks in our own contributions to this volume.
