Synopsis

This book delves into the importance of a healthy environment for children's well-being during their school years. The author highlights the need for comprehensive public health administration and discusses the shift from treating defects to attacking the causes of illness. The book emphasizes the role of preventive medicine, arguing for stronger forces to combat disease. Drawing on government reports, the author illustrates the prevalence of dental decay, malnutrition, eye and ear defects, and other ailments among schoolchildren. The author contends that these issues are often rooted in unfavorable home conditions, such as lack of sanitation, overcrowding, improper feeding, and parental ignorance. The book advocates for education of mothers, institutional treatment, and a home nursing service to address these factors. It also stresses the importance of dental hygiene, early detection of eye problems, and the prevention of ear infections. By addressing the underlying causes of childhood health issues, this book provides valuable insights for improving the health and well-being of future generations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
