Discover how rabies arises in the animal world and why prevention hinges on understanding its paths.

This book traces the rabies microbe from origin to the nerves it invades, shaping the disease itself.

Delve into a detailed exploration of how rabies begins and travels through tissues, with a focus on the nervous system as the central stage for the disease. The text examines the different forms of rabies, how the virus moves from peripheral sites to the brain, and what this means for prevention and control. It also highlights the key role of the salivary gland and saliva in the life cycle of the virus, and discusses practical measures like dog-muzzling as a real-world approach to reducing canine rabies outbreaks.

Understand where the rabies microbe latches on and how it germinates in connective tissue and along nerves.
Learn how the virus travels through sensory and cerebro-spinal pathways to produce distinct disease forms.
See why the salivary gland is a central site for the microbe and how saliva reflects the disease’s progression.
Explore the rationale behind preventive measures and their potential to curb outbreaks in animals and communities.

Ideal for readers curious about the science of rabies, its origins, and the strategies used to limit its spread in the animal world.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

First published in 1903, this book presents a wide-ranging study of rabies. Three key areas of the disease are explored: its causation in the individual organism, its place among germ diseases with the end of bacterial agency in the animal economy, and its origin in the animal kingdom. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in epidemiology and the historical understanding of rabies.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the rabies virus and its relationship to other bacteria, examining the pathogen's origins in the animal kingdom. From a detailed analysis of the salivary gland as the traditional site of the virus, the author argues that this is not the sole location of the microbe. Rather, the author suggests that the amount of paralysis in a rabies case determines the presence and quantity of the virus in bodily fluids. Cases of rabies range from furious and convulsive to dumb and paralytic and the more severe the paralysis, the greater the infective rate. The author demonstrates that infection from a rabid dog bite is neither constant nor uniform but rather varies greatly, influenced by factors such as the severity of the bite, the amount of paralysis present and external factors like clothing or fur. Significantly, the author questions the traditional focus on canine rabies as the primary source of the disease in the animal kingdom, and suggests that more research is needed in this area. This meticulously researched book sheds new light on the nature of rabies, challenging traditional assumptions about the disease and offering valuable insights for further research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
