A Handbook on Leprosy is a comprehensive guide to the disease written by Samuel Patton Impey in 1896. The book covers all aspects of leprosy, including its causes, symptoms, and treatment.

The book also includes information on the social and economic impact of leprosy, and the challenges faced by those who suffer from it. Additionally, the author provides guidance on the management of leprosy patients, including the use of isolation and quarantine measures. A Handbook on Leprosy is an important historical document that sheds light on the medical understanding of leprosy in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
