Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book details the work of a medical professional tasked with advising the government on public health measures in the early 19th century. The author shares his perspective as a medical doctor with practical experience in the field. In describing his insights on what causes yellow fev…er and how it spreads, the author challenges some of the popular beliefs of the day, including the theory that it was caused by poor waste management practices or bad air alone. The book also outlines the author's recommendations for how cities should be structured and managed to promote public health. The author further illustrates that contagious fevers were specifically caused by impure air, and the means by which that could be prevented. Ultimately, this work advanced the understanding of yellow fever and disease prevention in general and shifted the focus towards contagious diseases being spread by impure air and foul conditions.
