Charles E. Rosenberg, professor of the history of science at Harvard University,
is an eminent medical historian and author of many books on the study of disease.
His best-known book, The Cholera Years: The United States in 1832, 1849 and
1866, is credited with influencing a generation of scientific historians
to examine not only a disease, but to study it within the social context of
its time. Rosenberg will deliver the Thomas D. Fulbright Lecture on Feb. 27.
