A Treatise on Fever
Southwood Smith
For centuries fever itself was thought a disease, not a symptom, and physicians labored to chart its many forms. Southwood Smith's treatise maps fever through its cerebral, thoracic and abdominal presentations, the work of a reformer who linked illness to filthy living conditions. An influential text in the history of public health. Read the fever science that helped clean up the cities.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
