Excerpt from The Causes and Prevention of Deafness: Four Lectures Delivered Under the Auspices of the National Bureau for Promoting the General Welfare of the DeafDr. Kerr Love, in giving the following Lectures, has responded in a most helpful and generous way to the invitation of the National Bureau for Promoting the General Welfare of the Deaf. The Four Lectures were given during the winter of 1912 - 3, and now that they are issued in pamphlet form, they become accessible to all those who are in sympathy with this great movement for the prevention of deafness.In formulating a correct classification of the various types of deafness, in indicating its leading causes, and in suggesting means for its prevention, Dr. Kerr Love has brought the whole question out into the open, and advanced the time when deafness shall be far less frequent than it now is. He has, to a large extent, wiped out the just reproach of the past, that science had not contributed its proper share in elucidating the origins of, and the remedies for this serious and wide-spread affliction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
