Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. A seminal work by the author on diphtheria and croup written at the request of the State Medical Society, this text is thought to be the most thorough and extensive of its kind during that era. The result of many years of painstaking research, the book stands as both a chronicle of the state of medical knowledge at the time of its publication, and an exploration of new ideas and treatments. The author begins by establishing the history of the diseases and the ways they manifest, then goes on to debunk prevailing standards of treatment and accepted medical knowledge. The author provides evidence to suggest that diphtheria and croup are one and the same disease, contrasting this theory with opposing viewpoints from his contemporaries. The author also covers common symptoms and complications of croup and diphtheria, including the issue of post-diphtheritic paralysis, providing a thorough resource for any physician treating the diseases. Through the author's extensive clinical observations, this book provides an insightful glimpse into the diphtheria and croup of the mid-19th century, making it essential reading for medical historians and practitioners alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
