Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Public Hygiene, Vol. 1 of 2: With 158 Illustrations
The proceedings of the annual conferences of state and territorial health officers with the United States Public Health and marine-hospital Service have developed so many points of friendly difference regarding various sanitary procedures that the present author has been led to institute a per sonal investigation of public hygiene from the standpoint of a seasoned gen eral practitioner of medicine and which investigation embraces a wide area of this country.
The decision has been reached that public hygiene has developed too much as a specialty and needs the tempering conclusions of the Whole body of the medical profession. Such conclusions must result from a careful comparison of laboratory and clinical data and no one class of men are so fully qualified to weigh them as is the class to whom this volume is especially addressed.
