Robert Fortuine provided basic medical care to Alaska Native people, chronicled the Health Aspects of Arctic Exploration and through a number of influential publications, was the first to thoroughly document and analyse Alaska's Medical History. This overview of his published work will provide the reader with a detailed overview, so that they can begin to explore Dr. Fortuine's many published works in more detail.
This review will explore Alaska's Medical History and the Health Aspects of Arctic Exploration through the research files and the 10 most significant publications of Dr. Robert Fortuine.
Review of Dr. Fortuine's major works and the master bibliography has over 3,000 references and 81 subjects. The master bibliography is a merger of 55 separate bibliographies, which provides a wealth of bibliographic information. This paper will describe his 10 most significant publications, 2 of which began as a journal issue.
Dr. Fortuine was a prolific writer throughout his career, publishing 134 articles and books. He wrote papers and books on Alaska's medical history, tuberculosis and health care delivery from Russian-America through the Public Health Service efforts in the territory and then the State of Alaska. The master bibliography has over 3,000 references and 81 subjects. This list has a significant number of entries for tuberculosis with almost one-third of the entries including this heading. Others dwell on the history of "pre-contact" health, the history of Alaska Native health care, the history of the Alaska Department of Health, especially the tuberculosis programme, the role of the US Public Health Service and traditional medicine. He completely reviewed every Governors' and the US Surgeon General's reports in regard to Alaska content. This paper describes his 10 most significant publications.
Robert Fortuine's published works offer a wealth of information and insight into Alaska's Medical History and the Health Aspects of Arctic Exploration. As is probably true for many historians, he began small, creating a bibliography and adapting a talk before tackling his first full-length book. Readers who sample his many works will be enriched and enlightened.
罗伯特·福图因（Robert Fortuine）为阿拉斯加原住民提供基本医疗服务，记录了北极探险的健康状况，并通过一系列有影响力的出版物，首次全面记录和分析了阿拉斯加的医学史。对他已发表作品的概述将为读者提供详细的综述，以便他们能够更深入地探索福图因博士的众多已发表作品。
本综述将通过罗伯特·福图因博士的研究档案和10部最重要的出版物，探索阿拉斯加的医学史以及北极探险的健康状况。
对福图因博士的主要作品进行综述，主文献目录有3000多条参考文献和81个主题。主文献目录是55个独立文献目录的合并，提供了丰富的书目信息。本文将描述他的10部最重要的出版物，其中2部最初是期刊特刊。
福图因博士在其整个职业生涯中都是一位多产的作家，发表了134篇文章和书籍。他撰写了关于阿拉斯加医学史、结核病以及从俄美时期到该地区及后来阿拉斯加州公共卫生服务机构所提供医疗保健的论文和书籍。主文献目录有3000多条参考文献和81个主题。这份清单中有大量关于结核病的条目，几乎三分之一的条目包含这个主题。其他条目涉及“接触前”健康史、阿拉斯加原住民医疗保健史、阿拉斯加卫生部史，尤其是结核病项目、美国公共卫生服务机构的作用以及传统医学。他全面审查了每一份州长报告和美国卫生局局长报告中与阿拉斯加相关的内容。本文描述了他的10部最重要的出版物。
罗伯特·福图因的已发表作品为阿拉斯加的医学史以及北极探险的健康状况提供了丰富的信息和深刻见解。正如许多历史学家可能遇到的情况一样，他起步较小，先创建了一个文献目录并改编了一次演讲，然后才着手撰写他的第一本长篇书籍。阅读他众多作品的读者将会有所收获并受到启发。
