Synopsis

Clinical Lectures on the Contagious Typhus Epidemic in Glasgow and the Vicinity, During the Years 1831 and 1832 is a medical book written by Richard Millar and published in 1833. The book contains a series of clinical lectures delivered by the author during the epidemic of contagious typhus that swept through Glasgow, Scotland and the surrounding areas in the early 1830s. The lectures provide a detailed account of the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of the disease, as well as the social and environmental factors that contributed to its spread. Millar's observations and recommendations for prevention and treatment are based on his extensive experience as a physician and his close involvement in the management of the epidemic. The book is an important historical record of the medical response to a major public health crisis and provides valuable insights into the challenges of controlling infectious diseases in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the following Lectures, gentlemen, I propose to offer you some remarks on the contagious Typhus, at present, March 1832, epidemic in Glasgow and the vicinity, and of which you have seen so many cases treated in our I nfirmary. To point out, by a laboured enumeration of motives, how much it concerns every student to be well acquainted with this disease, I hold to be superfluous labour. It will be sufficient if I remind you, that there is no malady of more frequent occurrence than fever, and none to which you will be oftener called, in the course of your future practice. Whatever relates to it, therefore, you will readily perceive, well merits your utmost attention. The details of our subject naturally arrange themselves under two heads, or sections. One of these is purely practical, and will contain merely the history, and treatment, of the distemper.
