Health, Wealth, and the City: Engineering Social and Urban Change in New York City, 1865 to 1920.

该项目将提供大量的在线原始历史数据，揭示卫生工程、实验室科学、对疾病决定因素的社会和文化理解以及城市转型之间的相互作用。该项目有三个中间目标。首先，我们将数字化三套罕见而难于使用的文件，这些文件描述了19世纪和20世纪最重要的社会机构之一纽约市卫生局的创建和转型：1865年的《纽约市卫生状况报告》、1865年至1920年的《纽约市卫生局年度报告》和1890年的汇编《纽约市和布鲁克林的生命统计数据》。其次，这些材料将构成一个新网站的支柱--《健康、财富和城市：纽约市的社会和城市变化工程》。1865-1920.`作为网站的一部分，我们将创建界面，供用户搜索和下载上述文件的文本和表格，并将托管课程大纲和远程学习材料。第三，我们将把这些材料整合到哥伦比亚大学公共卫生和医学史项目的课程中，并将它们作为教职员工和学生研究的基础。┤？╣╣│/元╣？？┐？？┴？/╝？%╣元？╣│/┤▓？%╝？_/╝│？/？%？╣│？？╣元？？┤？└？？║_？？元/元？▓┐┤_？╝║？%？`/┤？┐？元/元？╝`║/元？┴/`，╣元？▓╝/╣？╣？？/┤┬/_╣/╣？│？║？╝？&amp；©`%%/│？╝/“┤？╝？╝/┤┐/袁？？┴╣%%▓？╣└？%└？┤┴╣？袁？║╝？？│？？┤？？┐？？╣？？╝┐_？？/╣？┴╣%？？╝└？/╣_║？╝？/%┐│袁╣？

This project will provide a substantial, on-line collection of primary historical data that will reveal the interplay among sanitary engineering, laboratory science, social and cultural understandings of the determinants of disease, and urban transformation. The project has three intermediate objectives. First, we will digitize three sets of rare and hard-to-use documents that describe the creation and transformation of the New York City Department of Health, one of the most important social institutions of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries: the 1865 report on the `Sanitary Condition of the City,` the `Annual Reports of the New York City Department of Health` from its creation in 1865 through 1920, and the 1890 compilation `Vital Statistics of New York City and Brooklyn.` Second, these materials will form the backbone of a new web site, `Health, Wealth and the City: Engineering Social and Urban Change in New York City, 1865-1920.` As part of the site we will create interfaces for users to search and download the text and tables of the above documents, and will also host course syllabi and materials for distance learning. Third, we will integrate such materials into the curriculum of Columbia's Program in the History of Public Health and Medicine and use them as the basis for faculty and student research. ┤Á¥╣Â╣│/¥╣? ? ┐¢Á ┴Á/╝ ? %╣¥©╣│ /┤ ▓?Á ¥??%¢ Â╝?_ /╝│©/Á?%?À╣│/% ¢╣¥Á¢ ¥©Á ┤Á└Á%?║_Á¥ ? ¥/¢¥Á ▓┐┤ _?╝║©?%?À` /┤ À┐¢¥/¥?╝` ║/¥©┴/`¢ ╣ ¥©Á ▓╝/╣¢ ? Â╣¢©Á¢ /┤ ¥©Á Á┬/_╣/¥╣? ? á¢│?¢║?╝Á¢ ? &©`%%/│©?╝/ ¡┤Á╝À╝/┤┐/¥Á¢ ┴╣%% ▓Á ╣└?%└Á┤ ┴╣¥© _/` ? ¥©Á¢Á ║╝?ÕÁ│¥¢ /┤ ¥©┐¢ ¥©Á ╣¢¥╝┐_Á¥/¥╣? ┴╣%% ¢Á╝└Á / ╣_║?╝¥/¥ Á┤┐│/¥╣?/% Â┐│¥╣?
