Practical Tropical Sanitation. A Manual for Sanitary Inspectors and Others Interested in the Prevention of Disease in Tropical and Sub-Tropical Countries.

This book is a compilation of the author's lectures on the subject, together with abstracts of lectures by such well-known sanitarians as Sir Ronald Ross, Professor Boyce and others. The author makes no claim to originality, and acknowledges his indebtedness to other text-books. His compilation is in reality a good outline abstract of the subject. The book is intended chiefly for sanitary inspectors who are not medically trained. It is written in simple language, is well illustrated, and contains reproductions of various form blanks and the method of using them in such service. A useful appendix gives the details of the preparation of specimens and filing of reports, notes on meteorology, and many tables of weights and measures, etc.
