Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Carrier Problem in Infectious Diseases The Editors hope to issue in this series of International Medical Monographs contributions to the domain of the Medical Sciences on subjects of immediate interest, made by first-hand authorities who have been engaged in extending the confines of knowledge. Readers who seek to follow the rapid progress made in some new phase of investigation will find herein accurate information acquired from the consultation of the leading authorities of Europe and America, and illuminated by the researches and considered opinions of the authors. Amidst the press and rush of modern research, and the multitude of papers published in many tongues, it is necessary to find men of proved merit and ripe experience, who will winnow the wheat from the chaff, and give us the present knowledge of their own subjects in a duly balanced, concise, and accurate form. Drs. Ledingham and Arkwright in this volume deal with a subject of the greatest importance to public health. They have made an elaborate study of the doctrine that diseases, like typhoid fever, cerebrospinal fever, diphtheria, cholera, and dysentery, are propagated through the agency of human "carriers" - i.e., individuals outwardly healthy, or at most suffering from some trivial chronic complaint. The discovery of "carriers" has opened out a new department of hygiene, and the question of legislative control of such has become a matter of immediate practical importance. Up to date no such exhaustive treatise on the "carrier" problem as that of Drs. Ledingham and Arkwright has been published.
