Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in late 2002 and 2003 challenged the global public health community to confront a novel epidemic that spread rapidly from its origins in southern China until it had reached more than 25 other countries within a matter of months. In addition to the number of patients infected with the SARS virus, the disease had profound economic and political repercussions in many of the affected regions. Recent reports of isolated new SARS cases and a fear that the disease could reemerge and spread have put public health officials on high alert for any indications of possible new outbreaks. This report examines the response to SARS by public health systems in individual countries, the biology of the SARS coronavirus and related coronaviruses in animals, the economic and political fallout of the SARS epidemic, quarantine law and other public health measures that apply to combating infectious diseases, and the role of international organizations and scientific cooperation in halting the spread of SARS. The report provides an illuminating survey of findings from the epidemic, along with an assessment of what might be needed in order to contain any future outbreaks of SARS or other emerging infections.

This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diseases of China, Including Formosa and Korea It is necessary to emphasise that this book is not in any sense intended to be a general text-book of medicine, nor even to cover the whole ground of the diseases met with in China. Some of these, such as phthisis, pneumonia, and so forth, differ clinically in no respects from the same diseases as encountered in the West, and are therefore left untouched or only treated from the standpoint of their distribution or otherwise merely alluded to in these pages. Our aim is to present to medical men working in China, both Chinese and foreign, a concise account of the special diseases they will meet with in their own practice in this empire. A complete account of many of these diseases might be obtained from the voluminous literature of tropical medicine, and of most of those remaining from general medical literature. We present them in one volume of a reasonable size and with constant and special reference to their modifications as brought about by the hygienic habits and the racial peculiarities of the people of China, and draw our illustrative cases from practice among the same. It has been possible only to allude here and there to questions and studies arising out of this vast and promising field for comparative medical research, the disproval and establishment of medical theories by reference and comparison with the conditions and findings under widely differing civilisations. Such questions are raised under discussion of the etiology of beri-beri, the relation of carcinoma and gout, plague infection, and at many other points, but we would emphasize that this field is enormous in possibilities for future usefulness and would warrant the attention of special research workers. This work is illustrated very largely by photographs of diseased conditions among the Chinese; most of them being of our own taking and the majority having never been published. A certain number have appeared only in the China Medical Journal. Others have been taken, with permission, from recent works on pathology, parasitology, tropical medicine, and so forth, and acknowledgement is made in the text. Complete acknowledgement has been made as far as possible of all sources of outside information and illustration in the text of the book.

Our houses, all under one roof and of several storeys, with the exception of economy, perhaps, in heating, are liable to serious objections in the matter of fresh air, free ventilation, and, if need be, isolation. The better class of houses are usually raised several feet above the ground, and the surrounding courtyards being thus lower, afford excellent drainage in rainy weather. In China there are no sunk flats or cellars. the foundations are usually of stone, and the lower parts of the corners of the gables and cornices are also of this material all the rest is of brick.

Book excerpt: Disease has always been one of the greatest change agents in history, and while its impact on Western nations has been well documented, no major study exists of the role played by pestilence in the history of East Asia. Illnesses, both individual and epidemic, drove and defined the history of China, Japan, and Korea. Its impact reached into the areas of politics, society, religion, economics, and warfare. At the same time, China served as a transmitter of disease along the Silk Road to the rest of the world. Finally, the elimination of disease by these nations was one of the integral parts of the process of modernization in the 19th and 20th centuries. This book represents the first attempt to tackle the larger story of illness across 3000 years of East Asian history.
