Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the widespread occurrence of rickets in Italian children in the United States. The author suggests that climate plays a significant role in the disease's development, with the cold, damp conditions of the North being a contributing factor to the physical deterioration of a Southern race. The discussion examines the various factors commonly associated with rickets, such as poor nutrition and unsanitary living conditions, but argues that these elements are not the primary cause of the condition among Italian children. The author presents evidence to support the idea that the transition from the warm, dry climate of Italy to the harsh environment of the North is the underlying reason for the heightened prevalence of rickets in this specific population. The book's insights offer a new perspective on the complex relationship between climate, race, and the development of childhood diseases.
