Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book argues the longstanding theory that phthisis(consumption) is a contagious disease. The author backs up these claims by presenting comparisons to other contagious diseases, such as smallpox, with equivalent transmission and concentration patterns in affected areas. These comp…arisons are supported by extensive historic and map-based research. The book also posits that the bacillus tuberculosis, which causes phthisis, survives longer when suspended in decaying matter and is most likely transmitted through contaminated food and drink. This book compellingly argues for the contagiousness of phthisis, which causes hundreds of thousands of deaths annually, urging further research and governmental intervention to combat its spread.
