The Epidemics of the Middle Ages The Black Death, The Dancing Mania & The Sweating Sickness【電子書籍】[ J. F. C. Hecker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Epidemics of the Middle Ages is a book about several great diseases which turned up and brought horror to the people of Medieval Europe. The book is divided in three parts: 1) "The Black Death" provides descriptions of the apocalyptic destruction and death rates of the 14th century bubonic plague, which wiped out whole towns in England, France and Italy. Ninety percent of city populations died; 2) "The Dancing Mania" tells of a social phenomenon involving groups of people dancing erratically, sometimes thousands at a time. Affecting thousands of people across several centuries, dancing mania was not an isolated event. However, its causes were never explained; 3) "The Sweating Sickness" was a mysterious and contagious disease that struck England and later continental Europe in a series of epidemics beginning in 1485. The last outbreak occurred in 1551, after which the disease apparently vanished.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円

Ethical Challenges for Military Health Care Personnel Dealing with Epidemics【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines the issue of ethics in the context of the provision of military health care in an epidemic.</p> <p>Outbreaks of epidemics like Ebola trigger difficult ethical challenges for civilian and military health care personnel. This book offers theoretical reflections combined with reports from recent military and NGO missions in the field. The authors of this volume focus on military medical ethics adding a distinct voice to the topic of epidemics and infectious diseases. While military health care personnel are always crucially involved during disaster relief operations and large-scale public health emergencies, most of the current literature treats ethical issues during epidemics from a more general perspective without taking into account the specifics of the military context. The contributions in this volume provide first-hand insights into some of the ethical issues encountered by military health care personnel in missions during the Ebola outbreak in 2014/2015. This practical perspective is complimented by academic analyses and theoretical reflections on ethical issues associated with epidemics.</p> <p>This book will be of much interest to students of military studies, ethics and African politics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,434円

Epidemics and the American Military Five Times Disease Changed the Course of War【電子書籍】[ Dr. Jack E. McCallum ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In <em>Epidemics and the American Military</em>, Dr. Jack McCallum examines the major role the military has played propagating and controlling disease throughout this nation’s history. The U.S. armed forces recruit young people from isolated rural areas and densely populated cities, many of whom have been exposed to a smorgasbord of germs. After training and living in close contact with each other for months, soldiers are shipped across countries and continents and meet civilians and other armies. McCallum argues that if one set out to design a perfect world for an aggressive pathogen, it would be hard to do better than an army at war.</p> <p>There are four ways to combat epidemic infectious diseases: quarantine, altering the ecology in which infections spread, medical treatment of infection, and immunization. Each has played a specific but often overlooked role in American wars. A case can be made that General George Washington saved the American Revolution when he mandated inoculation of the Continental Army with smallpox. The Union Army might very well have taken Richmond in 1862 had it not been for an epidemic of typhoid fever during the Peninsular Campaign. Yellow fever was a proximate cause of the American invasion of Cuba in 1898, and its control enabled a continued U.S. presence on the island and in the rest of the Caribbean. Had it not been for influenza, German Gen. Erich Ludendorff might well have succeeded in his offensive in the closing years of World War I. Before senior Army and Naval officers recognized the importance of anti-malarial prophylaxis and forced its acceptance by hesitant troops, the World War II Solomon and New Guinea campaigns were in danger of collapsing.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,981円

A Pest in the Land New World Epidemics in a Global Perspective【電子書籍】[ Suzanne Alchon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This study of disease among the native peoples of the New World before and after 1492 challenges many widely held notions about encounters between European and native peoples. Whereas many late twentieth century scholars blamed the catastrophic decline of postconquest native populations on the introduction of previously unknown infections from the Old World, Alchon argues that the experiences of native peoples in the New World closely resembled those of other human populations. Exposure to lethal new infections resulted in rates of morbidity and mortality among native Americans comparable to those found among Old World populations.</p> <p>Why then did native American populations decline by 75 to 90 percent in the century following contact with Europeans? Why did these populations fail to recover, in contrast to those of Africa, Asia, and Europe? Alchon points to the practices of European colonialism. Warfare and slavery increased mortality, and forced migrations undermined social, political, and economic institutions.</p> <p>This timely study effectively overturns the notion of New World exceptionalism. By showing that native Americans were not uniquely affected by European diseases, Alchon also undercuts the stereotypical notion of the Americas as a new Eden, free of disease and violence until the intrusion of germ-laden, rapacious Europeans.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,768円

Of the Epidemics (Illustrated Edition)【電子書籍】[ Hippocrates ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
Hippocrates (460-370 B.C.) is one of the best known of the Ancient Greeks, and his Hippocratic Oath is still in use today. An ancient Greek physician of the Age of Pericles and the Golden Age of Athens, Hippocrates is considered one of the most outstanding figures in the history of medicine, known simply as the Father of Western medicine in recognition of his lasting contributions to the field as the founder of the Hippocratic School of medicine. This intellectual school revolutionized medicine in ancient Greece, establishing it as a discipline distinct from other fields that it had traditionally been associated with (notably theurgy and philosophy), thus establishing medicine as a profession. However, the achievements of the writers of the Corpus, the practitioners of Hippocratic medicine, and the actions of Hippocrates himself are often commingled; thus very little is known about what Hippocrates actually thought, wrote, and did. There are also claims that point to Imhotep of ancient Egypt as history's first physician. Nevertheless, Hippocrates is commonly portrayed as the paragon of the ancient physician. In particular, he is credited with greatly advancing the systematic study of clinical medicine, summing up the medical knowledge of previous schools, and prescribing practices for physicians through the Hippocratic Corpus and other works. This edition of Hippocrates Of the Epidemics is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and is illustrated with images of busts of Hippocrates.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 167円

Controlling Contagion Epidemics and Institutions from the Black Death to Covid【電子書籍】[ Sheilagh Ogilvie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>How human institutionsーmarkets, states, communities, religions, guilds and familiesーhave helped both to control and to exacerbate epidemics throughout history.</strong></p> <p>How do societies tackle epidemic disease? In <em>Controlling Contagion</em>, Sheilagh Ogilvie answers this question by exploring seven centuries of pandemics, from the Black Death to Covid-19. For most of history, infectious diseases have killed many more people than famine or war, and in 2019 they still caused one death in four. Today, we deal with epidemics more successfully than our ancestors managed plague, smallpox, cholera or influenza. But we use many of the same approaches. Long before scientific medicine, human societies coordinated and innovated in response to biological shocksーsometimes well, sometimes badly.</p> <p>Ogilvie uses historical epidemics to analyse how human societies deal with “externalities”ーsituations where my action creates costs or benefits for others beyond those that I myself incur. Social institutionsーmarkets, states, communities, religions, guilds, and familiesーhelp us manage the negative externalities of contagion and the positive externalities of social distancing, sanitation, and immunization. Ogilvie shows how each institution enables us to coordinate, innovate and inspire each other to limit contagion. But each institution also has weaknesses that can make things worse. Markets shut down voluntarily during every epidemic in historyーbut they also brought people together, spreading contagion. States mandated quarantines, sanitation, and immunizationーbut they also waged war and censored information, exacerbating epidemics. Religions admonished us to avoid infecting our neighboursーbut they also preached against science and medical innovations. What decided the outcome, Ogilvie argues, was a temperate state, an adaptable market, and a strong civil society where a diversity of institutions played to their own strengths and checked each other’s flaws.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,065円

The Medici Effect, With a New Preface and Discussion Guide What Elephants and Epidemics Can Teach Us About Innovation【電子書籍】[ Frans Johansson ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Why do so many world-changing insights come from people with little or no related experience? Charles Darwin was a geologist when he proposed the theory of evolution. And it was an astronomer who finally explained what happened to the dinosaurs.</p> <p>Frans Johansson's <em>The Medici Effect</em> shows how breakthrough ideas most often occur when we bring concepts from one field into a new, unfamiliar territory and offers examples of how we can turn the ideas we discover into path-breaking innovations.</p> <p>Clayton M. Christensen, bestselling author of <em>The Innovator's Dilemma</em>, has described <em>The Medici Effect</em> as "one of the most insightful books about managing innovation I have ever read. Its assertion that breakthrough principles of creativity occur at novel intersections is an enduring principle of creativity that should guide innovators in every field."</p> <p>Now with a new preface and a discussion guide, and a foreword by Harvard Business School professor Teresa Amabile, <em>The Medici Effect</em> is a timeless classic that will help you reach your innovative peak.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,198円

The Impact of Quarantine on Military Operations: Pandemics and Epidemics, Isolation, Laws, Transportation, SARS International Lessons Learned, Bioterrorism Exercises, CBRN, WMD, Spanish Influenza【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction. The purpose of this paper is to fully define the role of quarantine as a battle-tested public health strategy and its potential impact on military operations in the United States Air Force (USAF). The primary emphasis will focus on how a commander can carry out effective operations while adhering to quarantine requirements during the initial 72-hour period following the realization of an outbreak. Quarantine may not be appropriate in all cases, however this may not be clear until a definitive diagnosis is known, which takes time. Unfortunately, time is not on the side of a commander forced with making a decision on how best to respond to an emerging disease outbreak. From a medical perspective, the initial 72-hour period was selected as a reasonable, conservative window for intervention based on recent bioterrorism exercises. This period of assessment will most likely precede arrival of additional support and formal identification of the involved agent, especially at an overseas installation. Actions taken during this critical period will determine if a commander has any hope of containing spread after a biologic attack. Disease containment challenges faced by a commander at an overseas installation are greater than in the Continental United States (CONUS) based on limited resources with a higher level of threat, so recommendations will focus on quarantine implementation in the overseas environment. That being said, many of the recommendations regarding timing of quarantine and sustainment options will be applicable regardless of the facility location or source of the biologic threat.</p> <p>CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION * CHAPTER 2 - HISTORY OF QUARANTINE * CHAPTER 3 - SARS * Epidemiology & Clinical Features of SARS * Quarantine & SARS * CHAPTER 4 - SARS - INTERNATIONAL LESSONS LEARNED * China * Canada * Hong Kong * Singapore * Taiwan * Vietnam * Summary * CHAPTER 5 - QUARANTINE LAWS * Model State Emergency Health Powers Act * CHAPTER 6 - QUARANTINE POLICY * DoD/Federal Policy * USAF Policy * CHAPTER 7 - LESSONS LEARNED FROM BIOTERRORISM EXERCISES * TOPOFF * Dark Winter * Sooner Spring * USAF Exercises * CHAPTER 8 - MILITARY OPERATIONS AND QUARANTINE * CHAPTER 9 - RECOMMENDATIONS FOR COMMANDERS * CHAPTER 10 - CONCLUSION * BIBLIOGRAPHY</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,180円

Social History of Epidemics in the Colonial Punjab【電子書籍】[ Sasha ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Since the earliest times, epidemics have broken out at regular intervals killing a large number of people. They have presented peculiar problems both to the state and to the society. The colonial India in general and the Punjab in particular were affected intermittently by epidemics. The Punjab was one of the worst affected provinces of the colonial India in which several lakhs of people fell prey to the deadly epidemics. Punjab was the wheat basket of the British empire and the leading recruitment centre for military service in British Indian army. Due to its strategic and military importance, the British handled the epidemics with great vigour. However, in their attempt to contain the epidemic, the British impinged on the privacy and religious susceptibilites of the natives. The present work discusses the role of the state in handling the epidemics and the response of the society to such measures. Sasha: The author is currently working as an Assistant Professor at Panjab University, Chandigah.She did her doctorate in the faculty of Arts under UGC fellowship from the Panjab University. She has to her credit several publications both in international and national journals on the issues of health, medicine and society in the colonial period.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 607円

American Contagions Epidemics and the Law from Smallpox to COVID-19【電子書籍】[ John Fabian Witt ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A concise history of how American law has shapedーand been shaped byーthe experience of contagion</strong></p> <p><strong>“Contrarians and the civic-minded alike will find Witt’s legal survey a fascinating resource”ー<em>Kirkus</em>, starred review</strong></p> <p>“Professor Witt’s book is an original and thoughtful contribution to the interdisciplinary study of disease and American law. Although he covers the broad sweep of the American experience of epidemics from yellow fever to COVID-19, he is especially timely in his exploration of the legal background to the current disaster of the American response to the coronavirus. A thought-provoking, readable, and important work.”ーFrank Snowden, author of <em>Epidemics and Society</em></p> <p>From yellow fever to smallpox to polio to AIDS to COVID-19, epidemics have prompted Americans to make choices and answer questions about their basic values and their laws. In five concise chapters, historian John Fabian Witt traces the legal history of epidemics, showing how infectious disease has both shaped, and been shaped by, the law. Arguing that throughout American history legal approaches to public health have been liberal for some communities and authoritarian for others, Witt shows us how history’s answers to the major questions brought up by previous epidemics help shape our answers today: What is the relationship between individual liberty and the common good? What is the role of the federal government, and what is the role of the states? Will long-standing traditions of government and law give way to the social imperatives of an epidemic? Will we let the inequities of our mixed tradition continue?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,695円

A History of Epidemics in Britain (Volume I of II) : from A.D. 664 to the Extinction of Plague【電子書籍】[ Charles Creighton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A History of Epidemics in Britain (Volume I of II) : from A.D. 664 to the Extinction of Plague</strong></p> <p>The Middle Age of European history has no naturally fixed beginning or ending. The period of Antiquity may be taken as concluded by the fourth Christian century, or by the fifth or by the sixth; the Modern period may be made to commence in the fourteenth, or in the fifteenth or in the sixteenth. The historian Hallam includes a thousand years in the medieval period, from the invasion of France by Clovis to the invasion of Italy by Charles VIII. in 1494. We begin, he says, in darkness and calamity, and we break off as the morning breathes upon us and the twilight reddens into the lustre of day. To the epidemiologist the medieval period is rounded more definitely. At the one end comes the great plague in the reign of Justinian, and at the other end the Black Death. Those are the two greatest pestilences in recorded history; each has no parallel except in the other. They were in the march of events, and should not be fixed upon as doing more than their share in shaping the course of history. But no single thing stands out more clearly as the stroke of fate in bringing the ancient civilization to an end than the vast depopulation and solitude made by the plague which came with the corn-ships from Egypt to Byzantium in the year 543; and nothing marks so definitely the emergence of Europe from the middle period of stagnation as the other depopulation and social upheaval made by the plague which came in the overland track of Genoese and Venetian traders from China in the year 1347. While many other influences were in the air to determine the oncoming and the offgoing of the middle darkness, those two world-wide pestilences were singular in their respective effects: of the one, we may say that it turned the key of the medieval prison-house; and of the other, that it unlocked the door after eight hundred years.</p> <p> </p> <p>The Black Death and its after-effects will occupy a large part of this work, so that what has just been said of it will not stand as a bare assertion. But the plague in the reign of Justinian hardly touches British history, and must be left with a brief reference. Gibbon was not insensible of the part that it played in the great drama of his history. “There was,” he says, “a visible decrease of the human species, which has never been repaired in some of the fairest countries of the globe.” After vainly trying to construe the arithmetic of Procopius, who was a witness of the calamity at Byzantium, he agrees to strike off one or more ciphers, and adopts as an estimate “not wholly inadmissible,” a mortality of one hundred millions. The effects of that depopulation, in part due to war, are not followed in the history. So far as Gibbon’s method could go, the plague came for him into the same group of phenomena as comets and earthquakes; it was part of the stage scenery amidst which the drama of emperors, pontiffs, generals, eunuchs, Theodoras, and adventurers proceeded. Even of the comets and earthquakes, he remarks that they were subject to physical laws; and it was from no want of scientific spirit that he omitted to show how a plague of such magnitude had a place in the physical order, and not less in the moral order.</p> <p> </p> <p>A new science of epidemiology has sprung up since the time of Gibbon, who had to depend on the writings of Mead, a busy and not very profound Court physician. More particularly the Egyptian origin of the plague of the sixth century, and its significance, have been elucidated by the brilliant theory of Pariset, of which some account will be given at the end of the chapter on the Black Death. For the present, we are concerned with it only in so far as it may have a bearing upon the pestilences of Britain. The plague of the sixth century made the greatest impression, naturally, upon the oldest civilized countries of Europe; but it extended also to the outlying provinces of the empire, and to the countries of the barbarians. It was the same disease as the Black Death of the fourteenth century, the bubo-plague; and it spread from country to country, and lasted from generation to generation, as that more familiar infection is known to have done.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 504円

The Global HIV Epidemics among Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM)【電子書籍】[ Beyrer,Chris; Wirtz,Andrea L.; Walker,Damian; Johns,Benjamin; Sifakis,Frangiscos; Baral,Stefan D. ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
This report explores the emerging epidemics of HIV among men who have sex with men (MSM) in low and middle income countries (LMIC). A case study approach is used to explore these epidemics in detail in Peru Ukraine Kenya and Thailand. Systematic reviews of epidemiology and prevention science were used to understand these epidemics and to assess the evidence for interventions in prevention access to care and treatment and human rights protections. The Goals model was then used to assess the potential impact at country level of responding to epidemics among MSM. Benefits were seen for overall HIV epidemic control in all four countries with greater investment in MSM prevention treatment and care. Costing and cost-effectiveness work found these interventions to be cost effective. Human rights and policy analyses were consistent with the epidemiology and costing?responding to HIV among MSM is both a public health priority and a human rights imperative.画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,368円

The Epidemics of the Middle Ages The Black Death, The Dancing Mania & The Sweating Sickness【電子書籍】[ J. F. C. Hecker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Epidemics of the Middle Ages," J. F. C. Hecker presents a meticulous historical account that delves into the devastating plagues that struck Europe between the 14th and 17th centuries. Through a rich tapestry of contemporary accounts, medical writings, and societal observations, Hecker employs a scholarly yet accessible literary style that vividly embodies the tragic impact of these epidemics on medieval society. The book critically engages with the cultural and historical context of the era, elucidating how fear and superstition shaped public responses to disease alongside emerging medical knowledge. J. F. C. Hecker, a noted historical physician, draws upon his extensive expertise in medicine and history to illuminate the interplay between health crises and societal evolution. His background allows him to merge the scientific understanding of epidemics with the human experience, offering insights into how these catastrophic events influenced public health policies and social structures. Hecker's work is further enriched by his vigorous advocacy for the importance of understanding history through a medical lens, demonstrating how past pandemics inform contemporary health discourse. This compelling chronicle is highly recommended for readers interested in medical history, sociology, or the intricate ways disease shapes civilization. Hecker's insightful analysis not only deepens our understanding of medieval epidemics but also resonates with today's ongoing struggles against infectious diseases, making it an essential read for both scholars and general audiences.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

Contagion and the Vampire The Vampiric Body as Locus of Disease and Global Epidemics in 21st Century【電子書籍】[ Simon Bacon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book examines how the vampire has always been connected to ideas of infection, pollution and diseaseーeven more so in the 21st century where it expresses the horrors of unseen and unstoppable disease and the foreboding and anxiety that accompany viral outbreaks and wider epidemics. Here the vampire gives physical form to the contagion and associated anxieties around the perceived causes and spread of disease, where it can take on many forms from animal to pestilential particulate matter, creeping shadows and even malignant weather systems. If blood is life, it is the body of the vampire that is death. This timely study looks at how and why the vampire continues to fulfil this function and posits that the true patient zero in the 21st century is no longer the dangerous, ancient, outsider from the East but is the undying monster that is Western culture itself.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,469円

The World's Deadliest Epidemics 101 Amazing Facts【電子書籍】[ Jack Goldstein ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>For as long as humans have lived on this earth, nature has done its very best to rid the planet of us. This book not only looks back at a number of times in recorded history where the future of our very existence was put in jeopardy, but also asks whether we could survive a resurgence of these pandemics… or even an entirely new as-yet undetected threat. From the plague of Justinian, through the Black Death and Spanish flu, to the 2015/16 Zika outbreak, the authors explore how each epidemic began, spread, and threatened to wipe us out. Although at times it may be a scary read, this fascinating book takes the reader on an unmissable journey through some of the darkest and most worrying threats to mankind.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 644円

A History of Epidemics in Britain from A.D. 664 to the Extinction of Plague and From the Extinction of Plague to the Present Time (Complete)【電子書籍】[ Charles Creighton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Middle Age of European history has no naturally fixed beginning or ending. The period of Antiquity may be taken as concluded by the fourth Christian century, or by the fifth or by the sixth; the Modern period may be made to commence in the fourteenth, or in the fifteenth or in the sixteenth. The historian Hallam includes a thousand years in the medieval period, from the invasion of France by Clovis to the invasion of Italy by Charles VIII. in 1494. We begin, he says, in darkness and calamity, and we break off as the morning breathes upon us and the twilight reddens into the lustre of day. To the epidemiologist the medieval period is rounded more definitely. At the one end comes the great plague in the reign of Justinian, and at the other end the Black Death. Those are the two greatest pestilences in recorded history; each has no parallel except in the other. They were in the march of events, and should not be fixed upon as doing more than their share in shaping the course of history. But no single thing stands out more clearly as the stroke of fate in bringing the ancient civilization to an end than the vast depopulation and solitude made by the plague which came with the corn-ships from Egypt to Byzantium in the year 543; and nothing marks so definitely the emergence of Europe from the middle period of stagnation as the other depopulation and social upheaval made by the plague which came in the overland track of Genoese and Venetian traders from China in the year 1347. While many other influences were in the air to determine the oncoming and the offgoing of the middle darkness, those two world-wide pestilences were singular in their respective effects: of the one, we may say that it turned the key of the medieval prison-house; and of the other, that it unlocked the door after eight hundred years. The Black Death and its after-effects will occupy a large part of this work, so that what has just been said of it will not stand as a bare assertion. But the plague in the reign of Justinian hardly touches British history, and must be left with a brief reference. Gibbon was not insensible of the part that it played in the great drama of his history. “There was,” he says, “a visible decrease of the human species, which has never been repaired in some of the fairest countries of the globe.” After vainly trying to construe the arithmetic of Procopius, who was a witness of the calamity at Byzantium, he agrees to strike off one or more ciphers, and adopts as an estimate “not wholly inadmissible,” a mortality of one hundred millions. The effects of that depopulation, in part due to war, are not followed in the history. So far as Gibbon’s method could go, the plague came for him into the same group of phenomena as comets and earthquakes; it was part of the stage scenery amidst which the drama of emperors, pontiffs, generals, eunuchs, Theodoras, and adventurers proceeded. Even of the comets and earthquakes, he remarks that they were subject to physical laws; and it was from no want of scientific spirit that he omitted to show how a plague of such magnitude had a place in the physical order, and not less in the moral order.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

A Very Remarkable Sickness Epidemics in the Petit Nord, 1670 to 1846【電子書籍】[ Paul Hackett ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The area between the Great Lakes and Lake Winnipeg, bounded on the north by the Hudson Bay lowlands, is sometimes known as the "Petit Nord." Providing a link between the cities of eastern Canada and the western interior, the Petit Nord was a critical communication and transportation hub for the North American fur trade for over 200 years.Although new diseases had first arrived in the New World in the 16th century, by the end of the 17th century shorter transoceanic travel time meant that a far greater number of diseases survived the journey from Europe and were still able to infect new communities. These acute, directly transmitted infectious diseases ? including smallpox, influenza, and measles ? would be responsible for a monumental loss of life and would forever transform North American Aboriginal communities.Historical geographer Paul Hackett meticulously traces the diffusion of these diseases from Europe through central Canada to the West. Significant trading gatherings at Sault Ste. Marie, the trade carried throughout the Petit Nord by Hudson Bay Company ships, and the travel nexus at the Red River Settlement, all provided prime breeding ground for the introduction, incubation and transmission of acute disease. Hackett?s analysis of evidence in fur-trade journals and oral history, combined with his study of the diffusion behaviour and characteristics of specific diseases, yields a comprehensive picture of where, when, and how the staggering impact of these epidemics was felt.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,369円

The Return of Epidemics Health and Society in Peru During the Twentieth Century【電子書籍】[ Marcos Cueto ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Historians have long recognized epidemics to be a significant, though sometimes hidden, factor in the fortunes of societies and civilizations. The study of epidemics heightens our understanding of relationships between economic systems and living conditions. It illuminates the ideologies and religious beliefs of the affected community and illustrates the efforts and inadequacies of public health systems. This investigation of the history of epidemics in various parts of Peru during the twentieth century opens up a new field for Latin American studies to include health and disease. These are important areas of the past that enable us to understand better the living conditions of people, the role of state authority and the dynamics of social movement. Marcos Cueto examines five series of epidemics: the bubonic plague of 1903-1930; the fever epidemic of 1919-1922; the typhus and small pox epidemics in the Andes; attempts to control and eradicate malaria, and the cholera epidemics of 1991. In each case he studies the biological and ecological factors that caused the outbreak, and the techniques and policies applied to fight it, together with the response of the affected society. The experience of epidemics in Peru has been cyclical. Poverty breeds disease which in turn results in further poverty. One of the aims of this study is to highlight areas of success and failure in the fight against epidemics in the hope that such awareness may help break this vicious circle.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 10,613円

The Common Nature of Epidemics and their Relation to Climate and Civilization【電子書籍】[ Thomas Southwood Smith ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Some account of the structure and functions of the human frame, of the action of physical agents on this wonderful machinery, and of the principles which relate to Individual, as well as to Public Health, ought to form a part of elemental education. There is a growing conviction that the necessity for such knowledge is not restricted to the physician; that it is essential also to the educator, the mother, the nurse, and indeed to every one who would enjoy, together with the due development of his physical, intellectual, and moral nature, the full term of the boon of life. The main causes which shorten and embitter human life, as far as that unhappy result depends on the disturbance of health, are within our own control. There is the closest connection between the knowledge we have acquired of the physical conditions on which the life and health of individuals and communities depend, and on our command over those conditions. Every fact we have learnt respecting the great laws of nature, on our conformity to which our very existence depends, has taught us that the circumstances which produce excessive sickness and early death are preventible. The character of Pestilence which gave it its great power and terrorーthat it walketh in darkness,ーis its character no longer. Its veil has fallen, and with it its strength. A clear and steady light now marks its course from its commencement to its end; and that light places in equally broad and strong relief its antagonist and conquerorーCleanliness.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円

Of The Epidemics【電子書籍】[ Hippocrates ]

<p>in THASUS, about The autumn equinox, and under The Pleiades, The rains were abundant, constant, and soft, with souTherly winds; The winter souTherly, The norTherly winds faint, droughts; on The whole, The winter having The character of spring. The spring was souTherly, cool, rains small in quantity. Summer, for The most part, cloudy, no rain, The Etesian winds, rare and small, blew in an irregular manner. The whole constitution of The season being thus inclined to The souTherly, and with droughts early in The spring, from The preceding opposite and norTherly state, ardent fevers occurred in a few instances, and These very mild, being rarely attended with hemorrhage, and never proving fatal. Swellings appeared about The ears, in many on eiTher side, and in The greatest number on both sides, being unaccompanied by fever so as not to confine The patient to bed; in all cases They disappeared without giving trouble, neiTher did any of Them come to suppuration, as is common in swellings from Other causes. They were of a lax, large, diffused character, without inflammation or pain, and They went away without any critical sign. They seized children, adults, and mostly those who were engaged in The exercises of The palestra and gymnasium, but seldom attacked women. Many had dry coughs without expectoration, and accompanied with hoarseness of voice. in some instances earlier, and in Others later, inflammations with pain seized sometimes one of The testicles, and sometimes both; some of These cases were accompanied with fever and some not; The greater part of These were attended with much suffering. in Other respects They were free of disease, so as not to require medical assistance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 640円
