Présentation de l'éditeur

While there is a number of good books on malaria, I believe there is a place for a work written by one engaged entirely in private practice largely in country districts, in the home of the severer forms of the disease. In the endeavor to make the work as practical as possible especial attention has been devoted to that mystic paramalarial syndrome, hemoglobinuric fever, and to the diagnosis and treatment of malaria. Prophylaxis has been considered in the light of Ross epoch-making discovery. The parthenogenetic cycle of the parasite, whose significance was first recognized by Schaudinn, and which affords the only rational explanation of latency and relapse, is described for the first time, perhaps, in our language. While I have not hesitated to draw from the literature for the illustration of practical points, due credit is given in the reference portion. I am especially indebted to the works of Ewing, Dock, Barker, Marchiafava and Bignami, and Kelsch and Kiener for pathologic data. I am grateful to my wife for copying the manuscript and for assistance in reading the proof, to Mr. W. C. Seckler for the photographic work, and to the W. B. Saunders Co. for courtesies throughout the publication of the book. W. H. D. Marianna, A rkansas, October,

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
