Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the relationship between tropical climates and European health. The author, a medical officer with experience in both temperate and tropical climates, challenges the prevailing medical doctrines of his time, proposing instead that many diseases previously attributed to malaria are in fact a consequence of the body's physiological adaptation to extreme heat. Drawing on extensive personal observations and case studies, the author presents a detailed analysis of the pathological changes he observed in the kidneys of Europeans who had resided in the tropics for extended periods. The book also examines the broader implications of these findings for our understanding of the relationship between climate and human health, offering valuable insights into the physiological challenges faced by Europeans living in tropical environments.
