Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 1: Session 1881-82 The first idea that must occur to anyone who hears me is the place which, among all such subjects, we Shall gratefully assign to mathematical science. If in physiology and therapeutics, we have recourse to this science for the com position Oi our facts, for a knowledge of the general from the particular, for the, apprehension of degrees of certainty under conditions that are inconstant and not wholly known; the indebtedness of epidemiology to mathematics begins at an earlier and ends at a later period of its course. So identified is the one with the other science, that there has occasionally been a confusion in the popular mind between the two things, and the study of epidemics has been regarded as essentially an affair of statistics: while, on the other hand, it has sometimes happened that laborious and promising work in the field of epidemiology has been without result, owing to want of apprehension of some circumstance that is plain enough when it is once pointed out by the mathematician.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 4: Session 1884-85 Gentlemen, - Since We last assembled in this place, death has taken from our Association one who, although younger than most of us, was second to none as a man of science. The daily business of the life of John Netten Radcliffe was epidemiology, and when that life closed prematurely a few weeks ago, there was not in Christendom any investigator of disease to whom the title of epidemiologist was more justly due than it was to our late esteemed and lamented fellow workman, an inquirer as honest as he was able, upon Whose brief and by no means painless mundane existence the divine light of truth was bountifully shed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 18 Nor among the causes tending to the reduction of mortality must mention be omitted Of the progress of curative medicine and surgery. For instance, the intro duction of the antiseptic system, which has diminished so greatly the danger of surgical operations, can hardly have failed to produce an appreciable effect upon the death-rate. Deaths from accident and negligence have fallen from an average rate of 689 per million in the five years 1861-65 to one of in the five years 1891-95, notwithstanding the increased use of machinery and the growing congestion Of traffic in our streets. During the same period, the death-rate per million from diseases of organs of locomotion has fallen from to and that from diseases of the organs of generation from to both of these classes comprising diseases Specially amenable to surgical treatment. But Side by side with the social changes favourable to the public health which I have mentioned, there has been one marked change tending in the contrary direction. I refer to the increasing aggregation of the population in the large towns, and the depopulation of the agricultural districts.

This book was released on 2016-10-16 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 22 The few remarks that follow are intended merely to intro duce the question, What is Climatic Disease? In former times people used to speak of the deadly climate of Calcutta, or Jamaica, or other tropical places; and, until about the middle of the last century, it must be admitted that this was true in the case of many of our foreign stations. Thus, the death-rate of the British soldier in India averaged (up to 1855) 69 per the rate at home being 9 per among men at the soldier's age. But when the causes of this high mortality were enquired into, it was found that by far the largest number of deaths were due to a few diseases of the zymotic class; so that, when the Indian Sanitary Commission presented their report in 1863, they were able to say that, were it possible wholly to put an end to deaths arising from the various classes of fevers, from cholera, dysentery, amd diarrhoea, together with hepatitis and its consequences, the troops serving in India would become as healthy as any body of men in the world. The Commissioners pronounced the Opinion that these diseases were, to a large extent, de pendent ou removable conditions and habits. I may mention that one of these habits was the drinking of the fourth part of a quart bottle of raw spirits every day, as a ration and another, the marching in a close-fitting tunic and stock, tightly buckled across the chest, and the head very imperfectly protected from the sun.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 10: Session 1890-91 These Acts of Parliament have, speaking generally, been framed with the design of ameliorating the condition of considerable sections of the community, and through these, the entire population. Though not nearly so advanced and comprehensive as many would justly wish to see them, they are nevertheless based upon lines easily susceptible of such expansion as will meet the demands and necessities of the future. The good intentions displayed in their construction, for which the proverbial praise may be accorded, are, however, materially frustrated by the cumbrousness and costliness of their provisions, not to mention legal subtleties, formulae, and forms retained in full force, even for the benefit of owners of houses acknowledged to be insanitary. To such an extent is this carried still by the law as it stands, that the so-called rights of property are held to be sacred, and, accordingly, take the first place, whilst the claims of the humbler, helpless, and poorer classes of humanity are relegated to a secondary position. That property has duties as well as rights is not yet adequately recognised. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The first suggestion of an International Conference was made by the French Government in 1838, but so diverse were the views held on the subject of quarantine and its enforcement at stations and ports on the Mediterranean, that the proposals fell through owing to various difficulties which arose. Again, in 1843, the British Government suggested a further conference, but this again was opposed by Austria as premature, as there was no foundation on which to found any regulations which would be acceptable to the Powers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 19: Session 1899-1900 IN the address which I had the honour to read before you a year ago, I recounted the history of the efforts which have been made in England during the past fifty years for the improvement and protection of the public health; and I endeavoured to estimate the degree of success which these efforts had attained. We found that - partly, no doubt, through the general amelioration of social condi tions, but partly also, as there was good reason to believe, as the result of efforts specially directed towards the improvement of the public health - there had been, during the half-century under review, a marked decline of the death-rate, it having fallen from per inhabit ants per annum in the five years 1847-51, to in the five years 1892-96. This fall, moreover, has taken place in spite of the increasing aggregation of the population in towns, a circumstance which of itself would have tended in a contrary direction.

The result is attained in different ways: by enclosing the work so that dust cannot escape; by substitution of wet or moist pro cesses giving off no dust; by exhaust draught carrying away the dust at the point of origin; and, as a ast resource, by respirators worn by the operatives exposed to the dust. In the case of dusty lead processes in particular, great advances have been made in this direction, with resulting diminution of lead-poisoning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the Epidemiological Society of London, Vol. 26: Session 1906-1907 Accordingly, in order to secure a better basis of com parison, I have applied the deaths registered in the several years from 1851 onwards to a standard population of uni form constitution in these respects, the standard adopted being that Of the enumerated population Of England and Wales at the Census of 1901. Whether or not the labour devoted to this task is justified by the results I leave you to judge. For myself, I confess that in their revised form I have greater confidence in comparing the rates of the present with those of the past than I should have had in the absence Of such revision, In attempting to trace through a long series of years the changes of mortality from a widespread and terribly destructive malady like tuberculosis, certain precautions must be Observed. At the outset, it is necessary to bear in mind that the causes of death were not abstracted in combination with the ages at death until the year 1847.
