    The Australasian Medical Directory and Handbook has a large amount of statistics and current medical information for all of Australia and New Zealand, plus several of the Pacific Islands (Fiji, Samoa and New Caledonia). It includes a large amount of useful information for social historians and anyone looking to explore their past or build a family tree.

    Included is:

    • Laws applicable to the medical profession
    • A directory of medical associations and departments (giving names and addresses)
    • Information regarding medical courses and university regulations
    • A listing of medical fees
    • A complete directory of registered doctors
    • Surgeons etc listing their qualifications and past experience
    • Obituaries as well as relevant geographical information for the different states
    • A general gazetteer and local directory for several country towns
    • Statistics as well as a listing of medical periodicals
