In this social history of tuberculosis, Daniel (emeritus, medicine, Case Western Reserve University) chronicles the changing attitudes and treatments of tuberculosis by looking at fiction, drama, essays, poetry, and letters written by writers who had tuberculosis or were affected by the disease in other ways. Chronological chapters consider writers including Keats, the Brontës, Thoreau, Alexandre Dumas, Thomas Mann, Katherine Mansfield, Sylvia Plath, and Susan Sontag. There is no subject index.
