Synopsis
The Birth of the Clinic: An Archaeology of Medical Perception was the second major work of twentieth-century French philosopher Michel Foucault. First published in France in 1963, the work was translated into English in 1973. Developing the themes explored in his previous work, Madness and Civilization, Foucault traces the development of the medical profession, and specifically the institution of the clinique (translated as "clinic", but here largely referring to teaching hospitals).
