Michael Bliss Wins Royal Society of Canada's Medal

Michael Bliss, Professor, Department of History Medicine, Cross Appointed Department of HPME, is the winner of the Royal Society of Canada's second 2001 Jason A. Hannah Medal for his book William Osler: A Life in Medicine.

Described as "a book that masterfully shows the changing face of medicine, from a compassionate profession to a profession based on science" it depicts the life of a person whose practice was changed by these developments and who initiated and furthered them at the same time.

Established in 1976, the prize recognizes an important Canadian publication in the history of medicine, published in the two years preceding its nomination.
