Download or read book Biology of Plagues written by Susan Scott and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-29 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The threat of unstoppable plagues, such as AIDS and Ebola, is always with us. In Europe, the most devastating plagues were those from the Black Death pandemic in the 1300s to the Great Plague of London in 1665. For the last 100 years, it has been accepted that Yersinia pestis, the infective agent of bubonic plague, was responsible for these epidemics. This book combines modern concepts of epidemiology and molecular biology with computer-modelling. Applying these to the analysis of historical epidemics, the authors show that they were not, in fact, outbreaks of bubonic plague. Biology of Plagues offers a completely new interdisciplinary interpretation of the plagues of Europe and establishes them within a geographical, historical and demographic framework. This fascinating detective work will be of interest to readers in the social and biological sciences, and lessons learnt will underline the implications of historical plagues for modern-day epidemiology.

Book excerpt: Updated with bonus material, including a new foreword and afterword with new research, this New York Times bestseller is essential reading for a time when mental health is constantly in the news. In this astonishing and startling book, award-winning science and history writer Robert Whitaker investigates a medical mystery: Why has the number of disabled mentally ill in the United States tripled over the past two decades? Interwoven with Whitaker’s groundbreaking analysis of the merits of psychiatric medications are the personal stories of children and adults swept up in this epidemic. As Anatomy of an Epidemic reveals, other societies have begun to alter their use of psychiatric medications and are now reporting much improved outcomes . . . so why can’t such change happen here in the United States? Why have the results from these long-term studies—all of which point to the same startling conclusion—been kept from the public? Our nation has been hit by an epidemic of disabling mental illness, and yet, as Anatomy of an Epidemic reveals, the medical blueprints for curbing that epidemic have already been drawn up. Praise for Anatomy of an Epidemic “The timing of Robert Whitaker’s Anatomy of an Epidemic, a comprehensive and highly readable history of psychiatry in the United States, couldn’t be better.”—Salon “Anatomy of an Epidemic offers some answers, charting controversial ground with mystery-novel pacing.”—TIME “Lucid, pointed and important, Anatomy of an Epidemic should be required reading for anyone considering extended use of psychiatric medicine. Whitaker is at the height of his powers.” —Greg Critser, author of Generation Rx

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plague: Bacteriology, Morbid Anatomy, and Histopathology; Including a Consideration of Insects as Plague Carriers It has been my purpose in the preparation of this report to furnish a scientific contribution to the subject and to bring out, if possible, some new points, which might be of interest and value. However, another practical object has never been lost sight of, namely, to provide a guide for those who might be called upon to make a post-mortem diagnosis of the first case of suspected plague in a district. This will always be a matter of great responsibility and sometimes one of considerable difficulty. Unless circumstances compel the contrary, the diagnosis of a plague case, being the first of its kind in a community, on board of a ship, etc., should be confirmed by one well trained in general pathology and bacteriology; or, still better, by one also having experience in the recognition and examination of plague cases. The importance of promptly diagnosing the first case of plague can not be overestimated. This disease does not make its initial appearance as a widespread epidemic, as is often the case with Asiatic cholera, when caused by a contaminated water supply or from other sources of infection. Rather, it begins very insidiously from one or Several imported cases. It is frequently easy to hold the plague in check, provided it is recognized and properly fought at an early stage. This has been proved by the observations made in the cities mentioned above and in Manila. In studying the histopathology of plague a highly interesting change was found in the kidneys, namely, extensive and frequently occurring hyaline fibrin thrombosis of the glomerular capillaries. AS it appears that this change has not been described in the study of the microscopic anatomy of the disease, it has been considered somewhat at length. The histologic examinations in their entirety have led to the conviction that plague in its most common bubonic type should not be looked upon as a hemorrhagic septicaemia, because according to all appearances the infecting bacilli remain practically localized until the agonal stage of the disease is reached.

Download or read book The Plague in Print written by Rebecca Totaro and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Plague in Print, Rebecca Totaro takes the reader into the world of plague-riddled Elizabethan England, documenting the development of distinct subgenres related to the plague and providing unprecedented access to important original sources of early modern plague writing. Totaro elucidates the interdisciplinary nature of plague writing, which raises religious, medical, civic, social, and individual concerns in early modern England. Each of the primary texts in the collection offers a glimpse into a particular subgenre of plague writing, beginning with Thomas Moulton’s plague remedy and prayers published by the Church of England and devoted to the issue of the plague. William Bullein’s A Dialogue, both pleasant and pietyful, a work that both addresses concerns related to the plague and offers humorous literary entertainment, exemplifies the multilayered nature of plague literature. The plague orders of Queen Elizabeth I highlight the community-wide attempts to combat the plague and deal with its manifold dilemmas. And after a plague bill from the Corporation of London, the collection ends with Thomas Dekker’s The Wonderful Year, which illustrates plague literature as it was fully formed, combining attitudes toward the plague from both the Elizabethan and Stuart periods. These writings offer a vivid picture of important themes particular to plague literature in England, providing valuable insight into the beliefs and fears of those who suffered through bubonic plague while illuminating the cultural significance of references to the plague in the more familiar early modern literature by Spenser, Donne, Milton, Shakespeare, and others. As a result, The Plague in Print will be of interest to students and scholars in a number of fields, including sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English literature, cultural studies, medical humanities, and the history of medicine.
