Book The Tuberculosis Movement

Download or read book The Tuberculosis Movement written by Michael E. Teller and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1988-04-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tuberculosis Movement presents a detailed description of the evolution of the American tuberculosis movement from its inception in the late 19th century to its maturity in 1917. As Teller demonstrates, the tuberculosis movement during this era pioneered many of the methods of contemporary public health--the voluntary association dedicated to eradicating a specific disease, close cooperation between physicians and laity and between public and private agencies, and campaigns of mass public education. The most comprehensive study of the movement to date, this book contains a wealth of information not found in any other history of the campaign against tuberculosis, including full accounts of the backgrounds, motivations, and ideology of the movement's leadership; the origins and activities of the state and local associations and their cooperation with other groups in the fight to control the disease; the educational campaign mounted by the movement's leadership; and public health measures and institutions established to restrict the spread of the disease.

Book A History of the National Tuberculosis Association the Anti Tuberculosis Movement in the United States  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the National Tuberculosis Association the Anti-Tuberculosis Movement in the United States The completion of fifteen years of the active work of the National Tuberculosis Association in January, 1920, seemed to me an opportune time for recording in some more or less permanent form a history of the beginning of the great anti-tuberculosis movement in the United States and a record of the progress made. This is the reason for this volume. My own personal interest in tuberculosis work, extending over a quarter of a century, and my intimate acquaintance with the National Tuberculosis Association from its inception to its present development, led me to suggest to the Association that such a history should be written. The committee appointed to undertake the matter asked me to write the history and submit it to them for criticism, modification, and approval. The committee was composed of Dr. Hermann M. Biggs, Chairman, Dr. Henry Barton Jacobs, Dr. George M. Kober, Dr. Charles J. Hatfield, and the author. Each member of the committee has read and approved the manuscript and offered helpful suggestions which have been incorporated in the text. Their suggestion that my own biography should be added was very flattering, but I have not complied with it for the following reasons: First, not having been an officer of the Association I was not entitled to appear among those who have held such positions; and secondly, there is nothing of sufficient importance in my own life to be worth recording. I have been a humble soldier in the war against tuberculosis which has been led by great generals. In the early days I had my trials and tribulations like all those who endeavor to do pioneer work. I have been amply rewarded for my work by the good will and friendship of my teachers and colleagues and that of the officers and directors of the Association who have granted me the privilege of writing the history and have been helpful in making its publication possible.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VIII THE STATE TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATIONS A HISTORY of the National Tuberculosis Association should AA logically include a brief survey of the work of the various state associations. For many years the National Association's work was largely that of organizing state bodies. Within the last four or five years, however, it has been the stimulation and standardization of tuberculosis work throughout the state organizations. At the present time there is a state association in every state and in the District of Columbia., The local associations in New York City, Brooklyn, Pittsburgh, and Chicago are treated by the National Tuberculosis Association in the same relation as state associations, and are designated as "affiliated associations." This section, therefore, will deal with the history of the work in each of the 48 state associations, the District of Columbia, and the four affiliated associations. For purpose of convenience the state and affiliated associations are grouped alphabetically. The information contained in this section has been compiled from reports received by the author and from records on file in the office of the National Tuberculosis Association. The information concerning deaths and death-rates is taken entirely from the records of the United States Census Bureau for the Registration Area of the United States in order that the figures may be uniform and comparable. While figures are available from state registrars for most of the states, they are not as comparable, one with another, as those from the Registration Area. Where no death-rate figures are given, it may be assumed that none are available, the state not being included in the Registration Area. 76 ALABAMA TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATION The active campaign...

Book Dr  Charles David Spivak

Download or read book Dr Charles David Spivak written by Jeanne Abrams and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2009-05-31 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part biography, part medical history, and part study of Jewish life in turn-of-the-century America, Jeanne Abrams's book tells the story of Dr. Charles David Spivak - a Jewish immigrant from Russia who became one of the leaders of the American Tuberculosis Movement. Born in Russia in 1861, Spivak immigrated to the United States in 1882 and received his medical degree from Philadelphia's Jefferson Medical College by 1890. In 1896, his wife's poor health brought them to Colorado. Determined to find a cure, Spivak became one of the most charismatic and well-known leaders in the American Tuberculosis Movement. His role as director of Denver's Jewish Consumptives' Relief Society sanatorium allowed his personal philosophies to strongly influence policies. His unique blend of Yiddishkeit, socialism, and secularism - along with his belief in treating the "whole" patient - became a model for integrating medical, social, and rehabilitation services that was copied across the country. Not only a national leader in the crusade against tuberculosis but also a luminary in the American Jewish community, Dr. Charles Spivak was a physician, humanitarian, writer, linguist, journalist, administrator, social worker, ethnic broker, and medical, public health, and social crusader. Abrams's biography will be a welcome addition to anyone interested in the history of medicine, Jewish life in America, or Colorado history.
