| 520 | |a During World War II, polio epidemics in the United States could be neither predicted nor contained, and paralyzed patients faced disability in a world unfriendly to the disabled. Sister Elizabeth Kenny arrived in the US from Australia in 1940 espousing an unorthodox approach to the treatment of polio. The Kenny method, initially dismissed by the US medical establishment, gained overwhelming support over the ensuing decade. Rogers presents both the passion and the practices of clinical care and explores them in their own terms. | ||
