Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of the plague and its means of transmission, as understood and observed during the 18th-century outbreak in the Russian Empire. While earlier scholars attributed the plague's devastating spread to miasma or the stars, this book's author demonstrates that the plague is propagated not through the air, but solely by contact with infected persons or contaminated materials. Through firsthand accounts and case studies, the author analyzes the plague's symptoms, its deadly progression, and its distinctive signs that set it apart from other diseases. The book challenges prevailing theories of the time and sheds light on how to prevent and control this catastrophic disease. This meticulously researched and detailed work stands as a fundamental contribution to our understanding of the plague and its devastating impact on human history.
