Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Medical Inspection of Schools This volume is a revision of Medical Inspection of Schools., published by the Russell Sage Foundation in October, 1908. The first edition was exhausted within three months, and the volume was reprinted in January, 1909, and again in December of the same year. During the three and a half years that have elapsed since the first publication of the volume there has been a three-fold increase in the number of American cities having systems of medical inspection of schools. In rapidity and extent, this development has been unequalled by that of any other educational movement in America. During these few years physical examinations have become an integral part of all the more important systems of medical inspection. The school nurse, almost unknown four years ago, is now an important adjunct of the systems of scores of cities. Dental inspection, then in its infancy, is now being carried on in nearly 200 cities. At that time three states and the District of Columbia had legal provisions for medical inspection. Now the number has increased to 20. These conditions have resulted in an increasing demand for a revision of the original text, and this has led to the preparation of the present volume. While covering much of the matter treated in the original book, the text has been entirely re-written, and the description of methods and forms, as well as the quantitative material, brought down to date. Like its predecessor, this book aims (1) To be of practical use; (2) to be a reliable source of information as to what is now being done and how it is being done; (3) to be frank in its admission of problems and difficulties as yet unsolved;(4) to avoid all dogmatism, saving that involved in the statement of actual experience.
