Sinopsis de DIRECTIONS FOR COOKING BY TROOPS, IN CAMP AND HOSPITAL

In "Directions for Cooking by Troops, in Camp and Hospital," Florence Nightingale presents a pioneering guide that intertwines culinary practices with military and medical considerations. Written during the 19th century, her text reflects a critical period when the health of soldiers was directly linked to their food supply—an insight that challenged contemporary notions of military logistics. Nightingales literary style exhibits clarity and precision, characteristic of her background in statistics and reform, lending practical advice that is informed by her observations in crime-ridden and resource-strained environments, particularly during the Crimean War.

Escrito por Florence Nightingale


Florence Nightingale
Florence Nightingale, (Florencia, Gran Ducado de Toscana, 12 de mayo de 1820-Londres, 13 de agosto de 1910), fue una enfermera, escritora y estadística británica, considerada precursora de la enfermería profesional moderna y creadora del primer modelo conceptual de enfermería. Desde muy joven se destacó en matemáticas, y aplicó sus conocimientos de estadística a la epidemiología y a la estadística sanitaria. Fue la primera mujer admitida en la Royal Statistical Society británica, y miembro honorario de la American Statistical Association.
Sentó las bases de la profesionalización de la enfermería con el establecimiento, en 1860, de su escuela de enfermería en el hospital Saint Thomas de Londres, actualmente parte integrante del King's College de Londres y del NHS. Fue la primera escuela laica de enfermería en el mundo.
Su trabajo fue la fuente de inspiración de Henri Dunant, fundador de la Cruz Roja y autor de las propuestas humanitarias adoptadas por la convención de Ginebra.
