This work was decades in the making, and the true scale of the use of penicillin and similar antibiotics failed to gain real traction among the medical community until the Second World War. The publication of this book in 1946 was meant to introduce medical professionals to the powerful new drug, which was becoming widely available for the first time. - In excellent condition, appealingly bound. - With the library stamp of Beecham Research Laboratories, one of the first major distributors of pencillin, dated 30 Dec. 1946, on the front free endpaper.
