Abstract

The first three chapters of this book provide successive pictures of Adventist health and medicine: the Western Health Reform Institute at Battle Creek, Michigan, c.1866, with its hydropathic remedies, representing Adventism's first foray into institutionalised health; the Sydney Sanitarium during the 1920s and 1930s; and the Sydney Adventist Hospital today, with its high tech instrumentation.
