The Causes of Tuberculosis

Originally published in 1917, as part of the Cambridge Public Health Series, this book was written to provide a guide for those 'interested in the stamping out of tuberculosis'. The text approaches the disease from an outlook based around experimental pathology, avoiding the clinical perspective already well represented in previous works by other researchers. Numerous illustrative figures and an appendices section are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in public health, the history of medicine and the historical understanding of tuberculosis.
