ABOUT
PLUNKET - the very word is a New Zealand icon.
Tells the story of the first hundred years of the Royal NZ Plunket Society, from 1907 when the infant death rate was appallingly high through to 2007. Along the way skirmishes with the Department of Health, the politicians and even, in the early days, the medical profession, have all been part of Plunket's battleground. Through all this, Plunket has readily adapted to the need for change and nurses and volunteers have continued to care for over 90% of New Zealand infants. Text is detailed and includes extracts from official documents and personal recollections, along with a wealth of illustrations to portray this dramatic century.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome and colour images.
