Andrew W. Keitt, associate professor of history at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, is the author of Inventing the Sacred: Imposture, Inquisition, and the Boundaries of the Supernatural in Golden Age Spain.

Andrew W. Keitt's book, intensively researched and engagingly written, illuminates the life and work of an important but understudied figure as well as the linked social, political, and medical movements that fostered the development of Spanish liberalism. - Elizabeth A. Williams, author of Appetite and Its Discontents: Science, Medicine, and the Urge to Eat, 1750-1950 ""A Physician in the Age of Liberal Reform presents a detailed investigation of a complex and multifaceted individual who was both innovative and emblematic of his time. In so doing, the study makes a critical contribution to the analysis of medicine's central role in crystallizing the values, discourses, and practices that hastened the collapse of the old regime and contributed to the fitful, imperfect emergence of a new liberal order in nineteenth-century Spain."" - Enric J. Novella, López Piñero Inter-University Institute for Science Studies, University of Valencia
