  • Information found: (Singer, Charles Joseph (1876-1960), historian of medicine and science, was born on 2 November 1876 at 22 Brunswick Square, Camberwell, London; began the medical course at University College, London, in 1893, but discovered a preference for zoology and won a scholarship at Magdalen College, Oxford, to pursue that subject, which remained a lifelong interest. He graduated BA in 1898 and then returned to the study of medicine, at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington, London, where he graduated BM in 1903. He qualified MRCS and LRCP and was immediately appointed medical officer to a small geographical expedition to Abyssinia, where he spent nearly a year. While on military service he published fifteen notable papers on medieval and renaissance medicine, and also his first major work, the first volume of Studies in the History and Method of Science (1917). After the war Singer returned to Oxford as lecturer in the history of biological sciences, but he found the atmosphere much changed, and in 1920 he accepted a lectureship in the history of medicine at University College, London. From 1928 to 1931 was presedent of the Académie internationale d'histoire des sciences. He died at his home in Kilmarth, near Par, Cornwall on 10 June 1960)
