Introduction
Medical-historical bibliography has made great progress since the 1960s, thanks substantially, although by no means entirely, to the availability of the digital computer. Excellent reference works such as Garrison and Morton¹ and Genevieve Miller’s bibliography² remain standards, but for the latter, at least, the task of supplementing or revising manually would become increasingly arduous. (The work has, to a significant degree, been continued by the National Library of Medicine’s efforts.) The Wellcome Library has issued a splendid quarterly bibliography since 1965, a work that unfortunately is more and more weakened by the lack of a cumulative index. We entered the Computer Age in that year, when the National Library of Medicine, in Bethesda, Maryland, began to produce its annual bibliographies, cumulated quinquennially.
Readers will be well aware of the merits and weaknesses of these various tools. Canadian readers will also know that our medical-historical literature has had little bibliographic attention, with two general exceptions. First, the major reference tools mentioned above do carry citations of Canadian material. However, such citations are far from comprehensive, even within the differing scopes of these bibliographies; local publications rarely are cited and none of the tools except Garrison and Morton is retrospective. Secondly, there have been some bibliographic efforts carried out in specialized fields. In the 1930s, MacDermot compiled a useful bibliography of Canadian medical periodicals³ that recently was brought up-to-date and expanded.⁴ A little-known but very useful bibliography has been prepared on the history of Indian and Inuit health.⁵ And a few individuals have received bibliographic attention, most particularly William Osler.⁶ Beyond these kinds of works, there has been little of specific assistance to historians of Canadian medicine. It is that gap that this volume is intended to fill.
Thirty years ago I began to collect material for my personal bibliography of Canadian medical history, little suspecting the scope this personal project would attain. This book represents the attainment of the first goal of three that were defined formally some years ago in seeking support for a project to enlarge Canadian medical-historical bibliographic resources. The three goals were:
• to publish a bibliography categorized by biographical and subject entries;
• to maintain an expanded data file that could be searched by any scholar seeking greater depth of information;
• to keep that file up-to-date for the indefinite future.
The data files do exist at McMaster University and are available to scholars. That option will be described later. The intention is to pursue the third goal, although to some degree success here is in the laps of the gods.
Scope and Definitions
This work is presented as a bibliography of secondary sources in Canadian medical history. Each of these words deserves some explanation and definition.
Bibliography: This is an enumerative bibliography without annotations. Since the material is in general not rare or difficult to find, no effort has been made to describe locations. Nor is it an elitist document in any way; the compiler has made no attempt to exclude bad
history (whatever that may be), nor badly written history. The spectrum will be found to be extremely broad, accurately reflecting the historical and contemporary state of the discipline. The work is avowedly retrospective, every reasonable effort having been made to find older material, especially that pre-dating the existing bibliographic tools—i.e. pre–1939.
Secondary Sources: These are published sources that are written about an event or person. To be published, a work must be available to the public; included are books, book chapters, journal and magazine articles, pamphlets, brochures, and theses. Primary sources, both published and unpublished, are excluded. For example, the original papers by Banting et al on their researches into insulin do not appear within these pages, although later retrospective considerations of these times and events, both by Banting and by Best, are included.
Canadian: Here the intent has been to encompass everything that fits all the other criteria and that took place in what is now Canada, or what was once Canada, including New France, British North America, and the territories of the Hudson’s Bay Company (but expressly excluding the now U.S.A., a huge subject in its own right). In addition, activities of Canadians outside the country have been included where these activities are identifiably Canadian
: for example, military medical work in Europe in World War I, and the medical-missionary efforts of numerous individuals in Asia and Africa.
Medical: The broadest scope has been used in defining this word, as should be evident in scanning the list of subject categories. However, some specific exclusions should be noted: a few general works on the history of dentistry, pharmacy, and nursing are cited, but these fields have not been tilled systematically. The same is true of related fields such as physiotherapy. On the other hand, the history of medical topics that are not medical-scientific, but rather social,
is included, as shown by the entries on subjects such as poor relief and famine.
History: This criterion also has been defined as having a wide spectrum. The result is perhaps most evident in the large number of obituaries that are included, some of them quite short and most of them uncritical; the rationale has been, first, that the obituary is a deliberate attempt to create an historical record, no matter how biased the eulogist may be, and second, that obituaries often are the sole published record of a life or the only accessible entree to a life. Thus obituaries have been entered in generous numbers.
If any simple statement can synopsize the editorial intention in compiling this bibliography, it might be this: where decisions to include/exclude have had to be made, I have tried to be inclusive rather than exclusive. Data presented in this bibliography need not be used, but data not presented might be lost or ignored.
There will be numerous omissions in this bibliography (without, I hope, many errors). I accept full responsibility for both, but I hope readers will see their occurrence as providing an opportunity to contribute to the increased usefullness of the work, and will notify me promptly. I also accept total responsibility for some discrepancies of style that continue to exist in the present work despite much effort to eliminate these; in a project pursued over many years, such inconsistencies seem as inevitable as they are frustrating. Ultimately, in the interests of getting the volume into the hands of historians, the time came when a halt had to be called to further resetting of type. One final apology is in order: although every effort was made to design the computer programmes to include them, and though they were all entered into the computer, nevertheless, it has proved impossible to print the proper accents for any of the items published in French. This inconsistency will be corrected in future editions.
Acknowledgements
Scholars throughout the field and in many parts of the world have suggested entries and assisted in many other ways. Although they are too numerous to mention by name, I hope they will accept this blanket note of appreciation as well as my warm invitation to continue to make recommendations. This book is only one stage in a continuing project.
Two secretaries, Sue Glover and, for a few months, Cora Miszuk, have had the unenviable task of typing thousands of entry-cards. They have done so with good humour as well as skill. Khursh Ahmed and Kim Clark, of the Computation Services Unit, Health Sciences Centre, McMaster University, provided valuable guidance in setting up the program, and Clark designed the necessary software.
The Hannah Institute for the History of Medicine, and Associated Medical Services, Inc., through two grants-in-aid, provided the necessary financial nourishment without which there would have been no bibliography. From this same source came the funding that enables this publication. Additional financial support came from the John P. McGovern Research Foundation of Houston, Texas.

Finally, may I offer the traditional, and totally deserved, tribute: an expression of appreciation to my wife, Connie Rankin Roland. She has indeed put up with lonely hours while I have laboured on this project; she has endured, patiently and with good humour, fully aware that when this responsibility has been completed, its place will be taken by another.

Using the Bibliography
The format derives in large measure from the annual bibliographies issued by the National Library of Medicine in the U.S.A. There are three sections, Biographical, Subject, and Author.
The Biographical section lists biographical accounts, obituaries, etc., alphabetically by the name of the biographee. Wherever possible, birth and death dates are listed after each individual’s name, not only for general information but also to assist the user in distinguishing the various McLeods and Smiths and Johnsons.
The table of subject-classification codes (Table 1, pages xix-xx) will assist the user in accessing material in the Subject section. These codes are based on those used by the N.L.M. but with some deletions, additions, and expansions. The category Diseases and Injuries
is further subdivided as shown in Table 2 (pages xxi–xxii).
It will be obvious to the reader that many of the categories are such that the opportunity for overlap with other categories exists. Thus anyone interested in Psychiatry would wish to examine the entries in that category as well as Mental Health and Hospitals, Psychiatric. Similarly, one might look for material related to diabetes and the discovery of insulin under Endocrinology in the main subject section, but should also remember that there is a specific category Diabetes in the secondary codes under Diseases and Injuries. All entries in each category of the Subject section are grouped into time periods (roughly corresponding to significant political events in Canadian history) and into geographical areas. Both of these divisions are described and itemized in Table 3.
The author section is just that—a listing of the entries in the book, alphabetically by the name of the author. There is one major omission from this section, however. All entries by that most prolific of authors, Anonymous, are deleted, on the principle that the list is long and a reader is highly unlikely to seek a reference for which he has no subject information but which he knows to be written anonymously.
Abbreviations
In general, names of journals and magazines are spelled out fully. The exceptions, a handfull of titles that recur with high frequency, are listed here:
Searching the McMaster University Data Base
The data base is available for access by any interested scholar. Although it is assumed that the published bibliography will provide sufficient material for most users, nevertheless, searching the data base carries two advantages. First, that base will be maintained continuously, and thus after a period of time will be significantly more up-to-date than the book. (When sufficient time has passed, the desirability of publishing a second volume or a revised edition will be considered.)
Secondly, data are available from the computer that are not so readily available from the published bibliography. This is so because articles that cover more than one general subject category were assigned one primary area—the one under which the item appears in the book—and up to four additional secondary areas in the data base.
For example, the article by Hilda Neatby on The Medical Profession in the North-West Territories
(Saskatchewan History 2(2): 1–15, 1949) is found in this volume under the category of Professionalization. But the article deals as well with Medical Licencing, Frontier Medicine, and Economics, Medical. A scholar not familiar with Neatby’s article but interested in medical economics could miss the reference unless the data base was searched for that category, at which time all primary citations in this category (those cited in the published bibliography) plus all secondary citations (such as to the Neatby article) will be located. So using this source can expand the number of relevant citations found.
Anyone who wishes to access the data base may do so by writing the appropriate office:

A check-list/order-form can be obtained by writing or calling (area 416 525–9140, ext. 2751); however, orders for searches will not be accepted on the telephone. You must specify on the appropriate form what search you wish to have made. Full details are available from the same address. A nominal charge of $10 will be made for each search made; the Hannah Institute for the History of Medicine has agreed to underwrite this programme, at least for the first few years, so that this charge can remain nominal and uniform.
