Religion, law, and the medical neglect of children in the United States, 1870-2000'the science of the age' /[electronic resource] :by Lynne Curry. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2019. - ix, 197 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Palgrave studies in the history of childhood. - Palgrave studies in the history of childhood..

Introduction -- The Physical Child -- The Public Child -- The Metaphysical Child -- The Infected Child -- Children on the Battle Line Between Religion and Medicine -- Children's Medical Care in the Courts -- The Science of the Age.

Drawing upon a diverse range of archival evidence, medical treatises, religious texts, public discourses, and legal documents, this book examines the rich historical context in which controversies surrounding the medical neglect of children erupted onto the American scene. It argues that several nineteenth-century developments collided to produce the first criminal prosecutions of parents who rejected medical attendance as a tenet of their religious faith. A view of children as distinct biological beings with particularized needs for physical care had engendered both the new medical practice field of pediatrics and a vigorous child welfare movement that forced legislatures and courts to reconsider public and private responsibility for ensuring children's physical well-being. At the same time, a number of healing religions had emerged to challenge the growing authority of medical doctors and the appropriate role of the state in the realm of child welfare. The rapid proliferation of the new healing churches, and the mixed outcomes of parents' criminal trials, reflected ongoing uneasiness about the increasing presence of science in American life.
