Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Focal Infection: The Lane Medical Lectures is a book written by Frank Billings that explores the concept of focal infection and its impact on human health. The book is based on a series of lectures that Billings gave at Stanford University's Lane Medical Library in 1916.In the book, Billings argues that many chronic diseases, such as arthritis, heart disease, and kidney disease, are caused by infections that originate in specific parts of the body, such as the teeth, tonsils, or sinuses. These infections, known as focal infections, can spread throughout the body and cause a range of health problems.Billings provides evidence for his theory by drawing on his own clinical experience and the work of other medical professionals. He also discusses the various treatments available for focal infections, including surgery, antibiotics, and other therapies.Overall, Focal Infection: The Lane Medical Lectures is a detailed and informative exploration of an important medical concept that continues to be studied and debated to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
