Synopsis

This book, written in 1899, presents a look into the efforts of the late 19th century to combat tuberculosis through the use of sanatoriums. In it, the author, who like many of their time believed that fresh air and rest were the keys to recovery, discusses the importance of sanatoriums for providing a structured and medically supervised approach to treatment, and argues that while climate was important it was not the only factor in recovery. The author provides a detailed comparative overview of existing sanatoriums, their practices, and their results, and concludes that this approach could be successfully used to treat a range of tubercular conditions and improve outcomes for patients. This book not only provides valuable historical insights into the medical thinking of the time but also offers insight into the development of modern sanatorium practices and the evolution of the treatment of tuberculosis.

A propos du livre

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.
