About this work
Description
Constitution, council and other minutes, reports and other papers of BIMM and of one of its two predecessor organisations, the British Association of Manipulative Medicine (BAMM), 1987-2000. In addition to the official papers there is much correspondence and other documentation created by or sent to Malcolm Morrison, who was active in both bodies and eventually became President of BIMM. The latter material contains a large amount of information on medical education, including draft syllabi.
BAMM and subsequently BIMM served as the British representative bodies within the Fédération International de Médecine Manuelle (FIMM); the collection includes some material on FIMM meetings and some discussion of the body's future.
There is also a very little information on activities of the British League Against Rheumatism (BLAR).
The pre-merger history of the Institute of Orthopaedic Medicine (IoM) is not represented.
