Fifteen articles discuss Sigerist's influence on the history of medicine, medical sociology, and health policy and illuminate why, 35 years after his death, he continues to be revered by many public health professionals and medical historians. In the first half of the century, Sigerist was widely regarded as the world's leading historian of medicine. He was also a Marxist sympathizer and advocate of socialized medicine, and he had an enormous and controversial influence on the medical politics of his time.
