Medicine & Health

This collection chronicles the evolution of medical science and public health, featuring rare treatises, clinical studies, and instructional manuals from the 19th and 20th centuries. The archive encompasses a wide range of subjects, from foundational works on anatomy and surgery to specialized Soviet-era publications on social hygiene, psychiatry, and balneology. A significant portion of the collection highlights the development of medical infrastructure in the Caucasus, including studies on regional mineral springs and sanatorium culture. Whether documenting pioneering surgical techniques or the mobilization of state health campaigns, these volumes serve as vital primary sources for historians of science and medicine.
