Handbook of the Franco-Chinese Medical College (Leçons de pathologie externe — École de médecine francochinoise) [Titled in French] Year: 1917 Call Number: MAN-004 This early 20th-century Chinese surgical manual contains detailed color illustrations of human joints and musculature. Reflecting rapid advancements enabled by antisepsis and anesthesia technologies during the 19-20th century transition, the text demonstrates mature localization of Western medicine through predominant Chinese terminology, though retaining French terms for specialized concepts like “Hernie”. From Ng Pat Sun’s collection of Franco-Chinese Medical College materials, the short-lived institution operated by the French-sponsored Hospital Franco-Chinois Paul Doumer in Guangzhou represents France’s earliest medical educational venture in South China. 157 29
