Abstract:
This article examines the career of physician and surgeon Calvin Jones of North Carolina. During his career, Jones bridged the gap between a method of medicine characterized by speculative systems of pathology and heroic practice (1729-1820) and a period (1820-1870) that saw to the implementation of a method of modern pathology and clinical studies.
