Publisher's Synopsis

Malaria: Cause and Control is a book written by William Brodbeck Herms in 1913. The book is a comprehensive study of malaria, a disease caused by a parasite that is transmitted to humans through the bites of infected mosquitoes. The book covers the history, epidemiology, and pathology of the disease, as well as the various methods of prevention and treatment that were available at the time. Herms discusses the different species of mosquitoes that transmit the disease, the life cycle of the parasite, and the symptoms and complications of malaria. The book also includes a detailed analysis of the various control measures that were being used at the time, including mosquito control, the use of quinine and other drugs, and the development of vaccines. Overall, Malaria: Cause and Control is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the study and control of one of the world's most deadly diseases.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
