Book Description
Excerpt from A Handbook of Medical Climatology: Embodying Its Principles and Therapeutic Application With Scientific Data of the Chief Health Resorts of the World The non-existence of a systematic treatise on medical climatology, and the fact that this subject has engaged the author's attention for thirty years, may be advanced as the reasons for the preparation of this volume. The time, moreover, seems ripe for such an endeavor, for there is a growing appreciation both on the part of the profession and the public at large as to the value of climate in the prevention and treatment of disease, and fortunately to answer this awakening we have now accumulated accurate and extended meteorological observations upon which to found natural laws affording trustworthy conclusions. In the endeavor to accomplish the purpose above outlined the author has collated and compared climatic observations from all parts of the world up to the present time, and has sought to systematize the work of others with his own experience. It is hardly too much to say that it is possible to prescribe a climate with as much precision as a drug, and with far greater effect in appropriate cases. If the present volume contributes to the establishment of climatology in its proper place as one of the most definite and useful of the medical sciences, its purpose will be fulfilled. European nations have long since recognized the therapeutic and financial value of their health-resorts, but Americans are only now coming to appreciate the equal resources of their own continent. The United States Government observations have been conducted with wisdom, and in connection with the special climatic studies of physicians have now covered practically the entire country.
