Description
Severus Health and Disease 2011 Edition by William Leslie Mackenzie
"The science of public health administration has had no abler or more attractive exponent than Dr. Mackenzie. He adds to a thorough grasp of the problems an illuminating style, and an arresting manner of treating a subject often dull and sometimes unsavoury." - Economist With a near-literary style, William L. Mackenzie (1862-1935) guides the reader through an examination of common diseases, their sources and their prevention. Defining "health" as "a mere working concept, an ideal", he offers a view on the changing health awareness of early 20th century society.show more
