In 1943 the Australian Army formed a special research unit team, the Land Headquarters Medical Research Unit, under the guidance of Neil Hamilton Fairley, to tackle the growing problem of malarial infection of the Australian troops in the south-west Pacific. Experiments at Cairns on more than 800 volunteers and over 300 malaria infected solders from New Guinea, constituted the largest series of clinical trials involving experimental transmission of human malaria ever conducted. By 1944 the results showed that atebrin provided complete protection, and the rigid atebrin discipline adopted by the Australian Army resulted in the lowerst malaria levels ever recorded by troops operating for extended periods in highly malarious areas. This meticulously documented book chronicles the Australian search for a cure for malaria and the scientific breakthroughs. Includes rolls of volunteers, donors and staff.

Paperback. 1. 2003, First edition. A good copy with some creasing of the wraps. The first page has been removed and this copy has light pencil underlining throughout and the odd small mark in pen. Still a very useable copy of this scarce publication. Scans available if required.
