Publisher's Synopsis

Geographical Pathology: An Inquiry Into The Geographical Distribution Of Infective And Climatic Diseases is a book written by Andrew Davidson and originally published in 1892. The book is a comprehensive study of the geographical distribution of infectious and climatic diseases, and the factors that influence their spread and prevalence in different regions of the world. The book covers a wide range of topics related to geographical pathology, including the impact of climate, geography, and environmental factors on the incidence and distribution of diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, cholera, and tuberculosis. The author also explores the role of human behavior, social structures, and economic factors in the spread of disease.Throughout the book, Davidson draws on a wide range of sources, including medical literature, epidemiological studies, and historical accounts, to provide a detailed and nuanced understanding of the complex factors that shape the distribution of disease. He also provides a number of case studies and examples to illustrate his arguments and highlight the practical implications of his research.Overall, Geographical Pathology is a seminal work in the field of medical geography and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history, geography, and epidemiology of infectious and climatic diseases.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
