This Essay is not addressed specially to medical readers, but rather has its purpose for the public, and above all for the Sovereign People wherever they are found. I ts aim is to lead them, in their fair rights of sovereignty, to supervise medical policy and practice with regard to epidemics and other events which personally concern them. A nd, secondly, it offers a theory, very old and very new, of the calamities of disease. This part of the subject will be read and tolerated only by those who believe in God and the Christian religion; in immortality as brought to light in Christ; in man as an organic humanity in the life here and the life hereafter, and in the inseparable mutual connection of these two lives in which mankind wherever extant are members one of another. To others than such believers our theory will be uninteresting, and for the most part unintelligible. We shall now proceed to deal as tenderly as we can with the parasitic hypothesis of the origin of cholera and of diseases generally, which at present blocks the way to higher views. LTHE CAUSES OF VISITATIONS. I presume the migration of bacteria from person to person, and from animal to animal, has been made the subject of sufficient observation, and is well ascertained.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book addresses the causes of disease epidemics, particularly cholera and influenza. It argues that the current medical paradigm, which focuses on contagion, should be replaced with a holistic approach emphasizing the patient's susceptibility to disease. The author examines the role of human psychology, morality, and spiritual development on physical health, suggesting that stress, fear, and other negative emotions can weaken the body's natural defenses. By providing a comprehensive understanding of the causes of disease, the book empowers readers to take an active role in preventing future epidemics and improving their overall well-being.
