| Summary: | Inaugurates a new series (Diseases, Epidemics, and Medicine) of primary source materials documenting the scientific and social history of some of the most dangerous and controversial diseases and epidemics that have beset humanity--each anthology to contain extensive introductory material and an annotated bibliography for further research. The present volume comprises documents from medical, public health, and popular literature--covering two centuries of American experience--that reflect the history of persistent efforts to explain and control the ravages of tuberculosis.
