Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Health and Medical Inspection of School Children The twentieth century has been marked by an unprecedented interest in the welfare of children, comparable indeed to the great periods of inspiration in art, in religion, and in letters which have occurred at different times in past centuries. Today the educator and the social worker receive instruction in health matters as an essential part of their training. Municipal authorities are endeavoring to reach parents by school inspection, by visiting nurses, and by public lectures and exhibits. Physicians, heretofore blind or curiously indifferent to the diseases and defects found in children past the period of infancy, have been awakened by medical inspection in the schools. The revelation that defects of the eye, the nose and throat, the teeth, and the mind may profoundly influence the general health of the individual bids fair to break down the artificial barriers which have been raised between the so-called specialties and general medicine. The aim of this book is to present a practical exposition of the work of medical inspection, born of the examination of some 35,000 children, and to give to physicians and teachers a survey of medical practice as it relates to children of school age. The subject-matter of a textbook is necessarily scientific and philosophical rather than emotional. I have endeavored, however, to provide enough illustration to give realism and human interest. A review of the work of medical inspection in different localities is not attempted. This has been done already by Gulick and Ayres of the Russell Sage Foundation, and by the United States Government, better than the author can do it. Only general information on the treatment of diseases and defects is given, as the writer does not care to participate in home medication based on incorrect diagnosis.
