Excerpt from Disinfection and Individual Prophylaxis Against Infectious Diseases Note. - The prize essay of the American Public Health Association on Disinfection and Individual Prophylaxis against Infectious Diseases, by George M. Sternberg, Surgeon- Major, U.S. Army, met with a large sale and, perhaps more than any other treatise on the subject, served as a guide to health authorities in the use of disinfectants. Since its publication in 1886 immense gains have been made in our knowledge of disinfection and the prevention of disease, and it is with pleasure that we announce that the distinguished author of this essay, now Surgeon- General of the United States Army, has just revised it so as to include the essentials of what has been found of value in the practical use of disinfectants, and in prophylaxis against disease. The Publication Committee decided to print the revised essay in Volume XXV. of the transactions of the Association, but copies of the essay alone may be secured from the Essay Department of the Association, Rochester, N. Y., H. Lomb, Supt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
