Excerpt from The Principles of Hygiene as Applied to Tropical and Sub-Tropical Climates
Two reasons have induced me to publish my lectures on Hygiene and Public Health in an extended form. One is that I have been frequently asked to do so, and the other is that a greater interest in hygiene and sanitation is being manifested in the Tropics, than ever was the case before. There is the same spirit abroad in tropical regions in relation to sanitary matters as existed in the early Victorian era in England, and it is likely that a book of this kind will be useful to medical men and officials interested in guiding and controlling the move ment. There are many branches of the subject omitted or dealt with inadequately, but it was thought best to avoid delay, and not at present to issue a bulky volume.
The hygiene of the Tropics and of warm climates is the same in principle as the hygiene of colder climates, but the differences of temperature, food, mode of life, environment, and civilization to be found in the Tropics modify to a considerable extent the conditions under which those principles have to be applied; consequently the practice of hygiene in the Tropics differs in many respects from that pursued in colder climates, and that which is suitable to the latter is not always suitable to the former.
