Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problems of Hygiene in Man's Dwellings The Principal reason for writing this book was the demand for a text book by a great number of pupils who were following my lectures on "Hygienic principles in planning of dwellings and elementary instruction in planning of private dwellings, institutional dwellings and hospitals." There being no such work in existence I commenced this book with the intention that it could be used by students as a text book or guide in the study of economical, practical and sanitary planning of various types of dwellings without the necessity of following this study along the lines of a strictly architectural course. In the preparation of data I discovered that the influence of hygienic principles in construction and planning of dwellings is much more extensive than generally realized; also, that the field of this study, the scope, is not limited to the single dwelling but must be considered as much more important in connection with combinations of dwellings, namely - villages, towns and cities. Even the most superficial study of methods of planning, decisions on location. Government or management of communities will show that with only few exceptions a great number of serious mistakes are made. These mistakes are sometimes, due to neglect or to ignorance of already well established facts. A great number of the mistakes, however, can be attributed to the deficiency in the general study of the many features of which the hygiene of the dwelling, taking it in a broad sense, is composed. For the study of this science in schools there is as yet no opportunity. There is as yet no course in Colleges or Universities where students can receive instruction on these subjects. Realizing this condition the original idea for this book became a side issue. The principal spur and greatest encouragement to the completion of this book became then the sincere hope that it may create in educational circles in Universities, Colleges, Educational and Vocational Schools, a strong demand for a carefully planned course where the study of all Important subjects which are Indicated, lightly touched upon or treated with comparative detail in this book and which outline "The Hygiene of the Dwellings" can be followed to such an extent as to keep abreast of modern science and invention. In the course of study of the different parts I have been continuously hampered and unable to reach conclusions through the lack of scientific data and the absence of statistical tables needed for comparison. The suggested college course would In the first place indicate the direction and the scope of needed research and the compiling of absolutely essential data. The old methods of detail of construction and planning which have been followed without sufficient Investigation, will then be discredited or the use of these methods will be justified. The false theories compounded by men of great name and slavishly followed by others on the strength of these names, will be abandoned and true knowledge will take the place of dogma. The number of those who would be interested in such a course Is very large. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Improved housing conditions can save lives, prevent disease, increase quality of life, reduce poverty, and help mitigate climate change. Housing is becoming increasingly important to health in light of urban growth, ageing populations and climate change. The WHO Housing and health guidelines bring together the most recent evidence to provide practical recommendations to reduce the health burden due to unsafe and substandard housing. Based on newly commissioned systematic reviews, the guidelines provide recommendations relevant to inadequate living space (crowding), low and high indoor temperatures, injury hazards in the home, and accessibility of housing for people with functional impairments. In addition, the guidelines identify and summarize existing WHO guidelines and recommendations related to housing, with respect to water quality, air quality, neighbourhood noise, asbestos, lead, tobacco smoke and radon. The guidelines take a comprehensive, intersectoral perspective on the issue of housing and health and highlight co-benefits of interventions addressing several risk factors at the same time. The WHO Housing and health guidelines aim at informing housing policies and regulations at the national, regional and local level and are further relevant in the daily activities of implementing actors who are directly involved in the construction, maintenance and demolition of housing in ways that influence human health and safety. The guidelines therefore emphasize the importance of collaboration between the health and other sectors and joint efforts across all government levels to promote healthy housing. The guidelines' implementation at country-level will in particular contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals on health (SDG 3) and sustainable cities (SDG 11). WHO will support Member States in adapting the guidelines to national contexts and priorities to ensure safe and healthy housing for all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late nineteenth-century Mexico was a country rife with health problems. In 1876, one out of every nineteen people died prematurely in Mexico City, a staggeringly high rate when compared to other major Western world capitals at the time, which saw more modest premature death rates of one out of fifty-two (London), one out of forty-four (Paris), and one out of thirty-five (Madrid). It is not an exaggeration to maintain that each day dozens of bodies could be found scattered throughout the streets of Mexico City, making the capital city one of the most unsanitary places in the Western Hemisphere. In light of such startling scenes, in Death Is All around Us Jonathan M. Weber examines how Mexican state officials, including President Porfirio Díaz, tried to resolve the public health dilemmas facing the city. By reducing the high mortality rate, state officials believed that Mexico City would be seen as a more modern and viable capital in North America. To this end the government used new forms of technology and scientific knowledge to deal with the thousands of unidentified and unburied corpses found in hospital morgues and cemeteries and on the streets. Tackling the central question of how the government used the latest technological and scientific advancements to persuade citizens and foreigners alike that the capital city—and thus Mexico as a whole—was capable of resolving the hygienic issues plaguing the city, Weber explores how the state’s attempts to exert control over procedures of death and burial became a powerful weapon for controlling the behavior of its citizens.
