Abstract

(1) THE authors of this book have undertaken the task of describing, in language intelligible to the educated man without special medical training, the present state of knowledge and opinion respecting the origin, nature, and methods of preventing important diseases. In the earlier chapters the principles of bacteriology and the meaning of terms employed in describing the phenomena of immunity are detailed and explained. In later chapters most of the common diseases are passed in review and the duty of an intelligent citizen in the presence of any such disease succinctly stated.
