"Both historians of medicine and advocates of One Health will benefit from its careful reconstructions of the intertwined histories of human and animal health and its incisive critiques of the conceptual and institutional borders that continue to separate them." (Etienne S. Benson, Isis, Vol. 111 (2), 2020) "This is a methodologically well-grounded book, full of documentation, on one of the major shifts in animal health history through the centuries. It illustrates a rarely explored aspect of current globalization that goes beyond internationalization, and illustrates the concept of 'globality' in the life sciences with the logical consequence of medicine being fundamentally as unitary as life. a descriptive book that explores the development of a current phenomenon in society." (Alain Touwaide, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2018) "Animals and the Making of Modern Medicine demonstrates the distance that can be traveled, and the depth of connections that can be revealed, when we break through disciplinary boundaries and challenge the norms that define - and limit - our scholarly pursuits." (Georgina M.


Montgomery, Journal of the History of Biology, Vol. 51, 2018).
