The Wellcome and war
The Friend office is just a stone’s throw from the majestic premises of the Wellcome Collection, that wonderful museum of the history of medicine
  • We occasionally catch glimpses of the editor sneaking in there to look at some of those gruesome exhibits of medical folklore


  • You might need to be a medical history buff to find the Wellcome Collection interesting, but at present there is an exhibition that should speak to all Quaker peaceniks
  • It is war through the eyes of surgeons and nurses, writers, artists and civilians as well as soldiers
