Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays on Bacteriology, Relation to the Progress of Medicine
This publication is the outgrowth of work done for the Indiana profession, having its origin in a series 'of papers upon the progress of bacteriology presented, by request, to the State Medical Society between the years 1890 and 1897.
These papers cover much of the time during which the germ theory of disease was working its way into the convictions of the profession, and it is with some little pride that the author is enabled to feel that of this progress he has been a part.
Presented under the special conditions indicated, and in serial form, they have something of a historical character and meaning which, even at the expense of some repetitions, has been in large measure preserved.
