Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents compelling evidence of the life-saving potential of sanitation. It's a collection of essays and speeches arguing for better sanitary practices and observing the steady progress made in sanitation methods since the mid-19th century. The author claims that sickness and disease can be dramatically reduced by improving garbage and waste removal techniques, building better housing, and investing in proper sewage disposal. By comparing death rates and disease occurrence in places like prisons and the military (where sanitation was strictly enforced) to the general population, the author builds an irrefutable case for investing in public health. This book is a fascinating and important read for anyone interested in public health or the history of medicine.
