Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from On Certain Endemic Skin and Other Diseases of India and Hot Climates Generally The materials from which the following report has been made consisted of a great number of special communications, despatches, and other official papers received from various quarters of the globe. Five hundred copies of the "Scheme," which embodied, at the time it was drawn up, the existing state of European knowledge concerning the diseases dealt with therein, together with a number of interrogatories in reference to each disease, were circulated by order of his Grace the Duke of Argyll, in India; whilst further supplies of copies were, through the courtesy of Lord Granville, Lord Kimberley, and Sir Alexander Armstrong sent officially to medical men in official and non-official positions in China, Japan, Egypt, Algeria, Norway, Sweden, Canada, the West Indies, Honolulu, and elsewhere, from whence it was thought likely that particular information might be obtained. The chief replies, or those worthy of notice, which have been received by us from the sources indicated above, appear in a more or less condensed form as appendices to our report, the sources of our information and the names of the several reporters being indicated in each instance. Very recently, Dr. Vandyke Carter was commissioned by the India Office to visit certain parts of Africa and Europe on his way out to India, with the object, chiefly, of studying the clinical history, geographical distinction and etiology of leprosy in these parts. We had some conversation with Dr. Carter before his departure concerning pellagra, Biskra bouton, and Aleppo evil and their allies. As our report was passing through the press, an account of Dr. Cartel´s travels and researches on the occasion referred to reached the India Office, and that portion of Dr. Carter´s researches which bore upon the subjects upon which we were reporting was sent to us to be used as we might think desirable in our report. Dr. Carter´s communications on Biskra, Crete, and Aleppo boutons are most interesting and valuable. They are given at length in Appendices IV. and XV.
