Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed look at the long-standing battle against yellow fever, one of the most fatal diseases within tropical climates. Beginning with an early examination of the disease's symptoms and origins, the author moves on to discuss the pathological effects of yellow fever on the human body. Yellow fever commonly presents as a remittent fever. The author posits that, while the disease can be both contagious and deadly, it is not necessarily fatal. The author believes that yellow fever is best treated through copious bloodletting, a technique that was once considered risky but has since become a standard medical practice. This book also provides a historical overview of yellow fever treatment. It explains how the discovery of yellow fever's origins and pathology has led to the development of various treatments, including quinine, which is still used today.
