Description
This groundbreaking work examines the intricate connections between cholera outbreaks and various physical phenomena, presenting research sanctioned by the Secretaries of State for War and for India. T. R. Lewis and D.D. Cunningham provide a comprehensive scientific analysis of cholera transmission and environmental factors influencing its spread.
Originally commissioned as part of a special government enquiry, this scholarly text combines observational data with theoretical analysis to understand the disease’s behavior. The authors investigate multiple hypotheses regarding cholera’s relationship to climate, geography, water sources, and other physical conditions prevalent in 19th-century India and colonial territories.
This historical document is invaluable for understanding the evolution of epidemiological thought and public health investigation during the British Raj. It reflects the scientific methodologies and medical understanding of its time while contributing significantly to the broader narrative of disease research and colonial medical history.
