Groundbreaking look at the science of rheumatism and its hidden causes. This classic volume presents a century of medical investigation into rheumatic fever, its origins, and its wide range of heart, nervous system, and joint effects.
This edition compiles key papers by F. J. Poynton and collaborators, tracing the shift from clinical observations to experimental infection models and the search for an infectious cause. It covers how rheumatism can affect the heart, brain, and joints, and how researchers tested ideas in animals and human cases alike.
