Excerpt from Aids to Tropical Hygiene
Since the last edition of this book was published, the Allied Armies have campaigned in many tropical theatres of war, and a great deal of work has been done by various investigators in all parts of the tropical world.
The result has been an immense increase to our store of knowledge, which has necessitated not merely the reion, but the rewriting, of the greater part of the volume.
I have been fortunate in having the valued and learned assistance of two of my brother officers, with wide and varied tropical experience - via, lieut.-colonel J. T. Johnson, an Assistant Director of Hygiene, and lieut.-colonel J. Mackenzie, an Assistant Director of Pathology.
