Abstract
It has often been argued that despite the major carnage caused by warfare, war has been good for medicine. In this lecture, Linda Bryder considers the long-term impact of health problems and medical responses during the First World War, focusing on the British world. She suggests that, while war is not 'good for medicine', the Great War had considerable impact on the way people understood and responded to health and medicine.
