Contact seller4-star sellerFIRST EDITION, SECOND PRINTING. Frontispiece portrait of the author. Publisher's cloth, author and title in gilt on front cover and spine. An excellent clean copy. First edition, second printing, the same year as the first. Overlock here focuses on the health of middle-class, working people, and especially those illnesses that c…an affect them such as consumption and tuberculosis. Topics discussed include: The home as a sanitarium (for people that may not be able to afford a formal hospital environment); childhood diseases such as consumption and catarrh; dangers of overwork; prevention of disease among those who follow different occupations; "the working day"; should a pregnant woman work in a factory; working people as spendthrifts; school buildings and the prevention of disease; drinking cups and their relation to health; flies and their menace to health; the modern factory and what it means to the people employed therein; spitting; worry and its effect on health; factory or farm for young men. Other diseases treated are appendicitis, dyspepsia, rheumatism, diphtheria, scarlet fever, heart disease, typhoid fever, and measles. Of particular interest are his theories on the value of breathing exercises, cooking for the sick, smoking, and how dancing is related to pneumonia and consumption. Overlock (1865-1920) was born in Maine and practiced medicine in Massachusetts. He was a prolific writer, tending toward public health for non-physicians.
